Too Old to Cut the Mustard

Too old, too old, he's too old

To cut the mustard anymore

Well, when I was young I had a lotta pep

I could get around I didn't need no help

But since I'm old and a gettin' gray

The people all look at me and say

Too old, too old, he's too old

To cut the mustard anymore

Buddy's gettin' too old, Buck's done got too old

He's too old to cut the mustard anymore

I used to could, jump just like a deer

Now I need a new landing gear

I used to could, jump a picket fence

But now I'm lucky if I jump an inch

Too old, too old, he's too old

To cut the mustard anymore

Buddy's gettin' too old, Buck's done got too old

He's too old to cut the mustard anymore

--- Instrumental ---

Well, when I was young I had an automobile

Scoot myself right under the wheel

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

Buddy's gettin' too old, Buck's done got too old

He's too old to cut the mustard anymore

Buck's too old, to cut the mustard anymore...
