OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
Circle Left
When I was young I had lots of pep, I could get around, didn't need
no help
Now I'm old and getting gray, People look at me and say
Well, I used to jump just like a deer, Now I need a new landing gear
Used to could jump a picket fence, Now I'm lucky if I jump an inch
When I was young I had an automobile, Slide myself right under the
wheel
Had to fight the girls off with a stick, Now they say "You make me
sick"
Allemande
Left your corner girl, Turn your partner right you whirl, Allemande Left with
the corner and Weave around that ring
I've done got too old, I just got too old
Swing
that girl and Promenade
I've done got too old, I just got too old, I'm too old to cut the
mustard anymore
FIGURE Heads Promenade half way with your
maid, Down the middle Square thru four hands I say, Right and Left thru the
outside pair
Veer left and Circulate, Half Tag, Scoot back boys, Scoot back girls, Swing the
corner girl and Promenade
I've done got too old, I just got too old, I'm too old to cut the
mustard anymore
