The Growing Old Blues

sure i might be an all-american hero, sure this is true and getting older has really turned me blue. good god, turning 40 has helped me realize that it won’t be long until i die. i’ll be lucky, lucky if i can make another 40, the average male life expectancy is 72, i’m well on my way to a modest cemetery plot and a tombstone that’ll say, here lies the remains of awesome nate, insect critter food is now he’s fate unless he gets cremated, i’ve the growing old blues.
