Lyrics

Too old, too old, he's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting' too old, he's done, got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore When I was young, I had a lotta pep I could get around, didn't need no help But now you're old and a gettin' gray The people all look at you and say Too old, too old, he's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting' too old, he's done, got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore I used to, could jump just like a deer But now you need a new landing gear I used to, could jump a picket fence But now you're lucky if you jump an inch Too old, too old, he's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting' too old, he's done, got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore When I was young I had an automobile Now they push you around in a chair with wheels I had to fight the gals off with a stick But now they say he makes me sick Too old, too old, he's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting' too old, he's done, got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore When I was young and in my prime The gals all used to stand in line But now they go the other way And as they leave I hear them say Too old, too old, he's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting' too old, he's done, got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's too old to cut the mustard anymore
