You tell me that I'm getting old, I tell you that's not me.
The house that I live in is all worn out, and that of course I know.
It's been in use a long, long time and weathered many a gale.
I'm really not surprised to find it's getting somewhat frail.
The color's changing on the roof, the windows getting dim,
The steps by now are quite well worn, it's appearance no longer trim.
The foundation is not as steady as once it used to be.
Yes my house is getting shaky, but my house just isn't me!!
A few short years can't make, I feel I'm in my youth.
Eternity is just ahead, a life of joy and peace.
The dweller inside my little house is bright and young and gay
You only see the outside, which is all that most folks see,
You tell me I am getting old, well you've mixed my house up with me.
