  7541>Too old, too old, he's too old
  To cut the mustard anymore.
 
 
  Well, when I was young I had a lotta pep
  I could get around I didn't need no help
  But since I'm old and a gettin' gray
  The people all look at me and say.
 
 
  Too old, too old, he's too old
  To cut the mustard anymore
  Buddy's gettin' too old, Buck's done got too old
  He's too old to cut the mustard anymore.
 
 
  I used to could, jump just like a deer
  Now I need a new landing gear
  I used to could, jump a picket fence
  But now I'm lucky if I jump an inch.
 
 
  Too old, too old, he's too old
  To cut the mustard anymore
  Buddy's gettin' too old, Buck's done got too old
  He's too old to cut the mustard anymore.
 
 
  Well, when I was young I had an automobile
  Scoot myself right under the wheel
  I had to fight the gals off with a stick
  But now they say he makes me sick.
 
 
  Too old, too old, he's too old
  To cut the mustard anymore
  Buddy's gettin' too old, Buck's done got too old
  He's too old to cut the mustard anymore.
 
 
  Buck's too old, to cut the mustard anymore
