Big Bill Broonzy Getting Older Every Day Lyrics

Getting Older Every Day Lyrics

You say you're gettin' old, Lord older every day

You say you're gettin'
old, yeah you say you're gettin' older every day

Now you ain't but fifty,
ooh Lord boy you shouldn't feel that way



Now when you get so old,
you can't work at no mill

Yeah when you get so old, Lord boy you can't
work at no mill

Now don't you make no date, ooh Lord buddy that you can't
fill



Now if your luck don't change, boy don't you be sad

Yeah
if your luck don't change, now buddy don't you be sad

Now you really gotta
learn Lord to take the good now with the bad



Now when you get old,
and your good girl don't want you around

Ooh Lord when you get old, and
your good girl don't want you around

Now you know you done run out of
commission, ooh boy I declare you are poorhouse bound



Now don't
laugh buddy, Lord it nobody's downfall

Ooh Lord don't laugh buddy, I mean
it nobody's downfall

Because if your woman would check up on you, ooh Lord
she put another mule in your stall
