This Old Fiddle Lyrics

Would ya write me a song about growing old my good friend said to me,
well what would I know about growing old I said I'm only 53,
I know that I am past the half way mark,
but this old dog still has a bark,
and hey diddle diddle I'm way past the middle but Wow!
there's still a tune in this old fiddle!

Would ya write me a song about growing old my good friend said to me,
Well what would I know about growing old i said I'm only 63,
I've got places to go and people to greet,
there's friends/lovers out there I've yet to meet,
and hey diddle diddle I'm way past the middle but Wow!
there's still a tune in this old fiddle!.

Would ya write me a song about growing old my good friend said to me,
well what would I know about growing old I said I'm only 73,
Old age is always 10 years more than what you are you see,
and hey diddle diddle I'm way past the middle but Wow!
there's still a tune in this old fiddle!

Would ya write me a song about growing old my good friend said to me,
Well what would I know about growing old I said I'm only 83,
I've got movies to see, got me dog to pat,
time to go and buy a great new hat,
And hey diddle diddle I'm way past the middle but Wow!
there';s still a tune in this old fiddle!

Would ya write me a song about growing old my good friend said to me,
Well what would I know about growing old I said I'm only 93,
Oh the people I've met and the places I've seen
I'm just hanging around for a note from the queen,
and hey diddle diddle I'm way past the middle but Wow!
there's still a tune in this old fiddle!

Would ya write me a song about growing old my good friend said to me,
well what would I know about growing old I said I'm only 103,
So I've lost a few teeth and a fair bit of hair
but hey I'm still rocking in my rocking chair,
and hey diddle diddle I'm way past the middle but Wow!
there's still a tune in this old fiddle!
