| Mid-Life Blues Song Written by, Marci Hanshue Copyright August 16, 2000 |
| Verse 1 The power poles are whizzin' by I got bugs in my hair, my teeth, and my eyes But I don't care, I'm with my man And we're livin' life, as free as we can Verse 2 Last spring our last kid finally flew the coop Thought it was time to make some dreams come true Put the house on the market--the very next day Bought us a hog, and kinda ran away Chorus We turned those mid-life blues, into somethin' fit to use I fell in love with my best-friend...again Just cause you get old, don't mean you have to die Just cause you move slow, don't mean you can't fly You gotta do what ya gotta do--every now and then |

| Verse 3 He's got me decked out in leather and suede Lookin' like I did in my younger days I hold on real tight goin' round those curves The twinkle in his eye, is worth a thousand words Chorus We turned those mid-life blues, into somethin' fit to use I fell in love with my best friend...again Just cause you get old, don't mean you have to die Just cause you move slow, don't mean you can't fly You gotta do what ya gotta do--every now and then |
| Bridge We ain't exactly young, but who really cares... who wants to go back in time? We're havin' so much fun, life's a double dare...we're just a little out of our minds... Chorus We turned those mid-life blues, into somethin'fit to use I fell in love with my best-friend...again Just cause you get old, don't mean you have to die Just cause you move slow, don't mean you can't fly You gotta do what ya gotta do--every now and then Tag Just cause you get old, don't mean you have to die Just cause you move slow,don't mean you can't fly You gotta do what ya gotta do--every now and then |

| Chorus Let's hurry up and do, before I lose my nerve I took her to the alter, with these romantic words Let's hurry up and do it, cause I ain't got time to kill Dogs need fed, grass needs cut, gotta fire up the grill Girl ya know I love ya, you know that you're my life So, let's hurry up and do it, say you wanna be my wife Verse 1 I call her my old lady, she sits behind my on my hog We never had any kids, but acquired three bird-dogs I swept her off her feet, in nineteen eighty-two I had my own philosophy, and never followed rules I'm sure I sounded crazy with each progressin' word When I said, "Let's hurry up and do it, before I lose my nerve" |
| Chorus Let's hurry up and do it, before I lose my nerve I took her to the alter, with these romantic words Let's hurry up and do it, 'cause I ain't got time to kill Dogs need fed, grass needs cut, gotta fire up the grill Girl ya know I love ya, you know that you're my life So, let's hurry up and do it, say you wanna be my wife Verse 2 I said all things conventional, really bum my trip She said I need help, but I knew she found me hip I never looked her in the eye, but caught more than a glimpse We found some things in common and been shacked up ever since Then one day in July, right before my 49th I set my beer on the ground, and put her hand in mine |
| Chorus I said, "Let's hurry up and do it, before I lose my nerve." I didn't bend down on my knee, I barely found the words Let's hurry up and do it, 'cause I ain't got time to kill Dogs need fed, grass needs cut, gotta fire up the grill Girl ya know I love ya, you know that you're my life So, let's hurry up and do it, say you wanna be my wife Tag I knew this was my last chance, to make it all work out When she said, "yes", I realized, what love was all about |
