How do you know when your youths all spent
Well my get up and go has got up and went
But in spite of it all I am able to grin
When I recall where my get up had been

When I was young my slippers were red
I could kick my heels rite over my head
When I grew older my slippers were blue
But I could still dance the whole night through

Now that I am older my slippers are black
I walk to the shops and puff my way back
The reason I know that my youths all spent
When my get up and go has got up and went

But I really don’t mind when I think with a grin
Of all the placers my get up has been
So when I look back to were I had went
I am glad that my get up has got up and went

I really enjoyed this one, a wonderful look at getting older; I hope I have the same experience one day.
