A time in my life to live
I have worked hard all my life in give
No time for aches and pain
There is no reason that I should continue to complain
Adventure is waiting for me outside the door
It’s all about get out and explore
Because I am a Senior Citizen I will not be ignored
I have achieved wisdom and understanding
Because I am experienced I can withstand
Don’t even think about calling me old
I am a Senior Citizen who is bold
Don’t tell me to do as I am told
Young people recognize a Senior Citizen’s years
It’s our wisdom and understanding of encouragement in how you preserver
Who says because I am a Senior Citizen I don’t fit in
Our motto is step out and let inspiration begin
I may have gray hairs, can barely walk, Aches and pain and eye sight may not good
As a Senior Citizen we are determined moving in could
However, young people you need understanding in should
Obtain knowledge with thirst for education in would
Young people, your day will come
Old age will be your some
So let the truth be told
Young people listen up, as your youth will become old
Don’t take a Senior Citizen for being weak
Don’t take our speech for being beak
We have the knowledge that you seek.
