Men of a Certain Age

A little gray on the sides A little hanging over the line Still all in all a catch For somebody passing by The theory of one’s sex appeal Disappearing over time Just a myth and not theory Just like a fine wine With age there comes true beauty Other ideas shot to hell For men of a certain age Can carry it very well So, okay some parts may stiffen While there are others that do not Gives no right to toss aside Giving up the game they’ve got With each year that draws us closer To the day of final breath Brings a great advantage An experience you won’t forget Bringing all the knowledge To the table presented there You’ll find a man with great respect All others will fail to compare So remember when you’re out there Looking for a great romance You can find it with a man Who has lived the world and danced With age indeed comes knowledge And experience, mark my word Combine these two together Can really rock your world
