"Don't Let Old Age Creep Upon You" lyrics

Yeah, yeah!
Don't let old age creep upon you
You're getting older each day
Time and tide waits for nobody
Your future's passing away

Save all your dimes and your dollars
Let every dime have some cents
Don't spend it all for your pleasure
Soon find yourself on the fence

Always think twice before you speak
You can say each word
Make up your mind before you speak
And you'll find yourself
As free as a bird

Little bit older tomorrow
Leave nothing undone for today
Don't let old age creep upon you
Your future's passing away
Yeah!

Don't let old age creep upon you, baby
You're getting older each day
Time and tide waits for nobody
Your future's passing away
Yeah!

Save all your dimes and your nickles
You know you got to pay your rent {you dog}
Don't spend it for your pleasure
You find big feet in a tent
Yeah!

Make up your mind before you speak
You can't save each word
Oh, baby, don't you shriek
You'll soon find yourself
As free as a bird

Be a bit older tomorrow, (factual)
Leave nothin' undone for today
Don't let old age creep upon you, babe
Future's passing away
Yeah!

Bah, da, da, da, da, da...
(So help me, look out there, you cats)
Oh, yeah!

You're a little bit older tomorrow
Leave nothin' undone for today
Don't let old age creep upon you
Yeah!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da,da, re-bop!
