Give Up This Younger Man - Clifford T. Ward

I don’t care for your new fangled ways

Everything about me stays

And you say I’ve grown detached

Well maybe that’s true

And I’m a bit old fashioned

Well maybe that too

Oh but don’t make a fool of yourself

Think what you’re doing

And give up this younger man

So he might be better looking than me

Well that’s not difficult

Ah but will he love you half as much

When he gets to know yer

And when things start to go wrong

Do ya think he’ll stay to show yer

So why don’t you put these ideas out of your head

Come on and cry on my shoulder

I could try to be more xciting

Sure I’ve lost some of my shin

But I’ve found we’ve got past the lightning

Into the calm into the calm

I don’t care for your new fangled ways

Everything about me stays

So I’ve grown detached

Well maybe that’s true

Alright so I’m old fashioned

Well maybe that too

Ah but don’t be a fool to yourself

Think what you’re doing

And give up this younger man
