You say "no no no no no no"
"Please, Please, Please don't go away"
I say "na na na... now!!
Please, Please know that I just can't atay"

You should know that you're still young
You don't need me it's just a waste of your time
I'm just a ghost of the past

cause we all know I'm already 66
all I can give you is just money and this old blues
and a way to get around
in this world on a tight rope
so don't slip away this world on a tight rope

You say "no no no no no no"
"Please, Please, Please don't go away"
I say "na na na... now!!
Please, Please know that I just can't atay"

You should know that I'm too old
to dance you a moonwalk on a sidewalk
you know it's too much to ask

cause we all know I'm already 66
all I can give you is just money and this old blues
and a way to get around
in this world on a tight rope
so don't slip away this world on a tight rope

You say you're I found of the ancient jokes
I don't quite find them funny at all

You say you like those archaic smiles
I simply feel that they're out of age
