It's not done but close enough to share.
I’ve been married for sixty-six years,
Sixty-six mostly happy years.
Sometimes I feel like I’m spinning my wheels
Down a one lane road called time.
I remember dead relatives and friends,
I hear their voices in my head
But I can’t remember what you just said
And that makes me so sad.
I have lived so long,
I once felt so strong
Like I controlled
My own destiny.
I watch my husband shuffle around
He recently slowed down
He’s almost as slow as me
Yeah, but at least he’s on his feet
We read the papers every day
And we watch the news
We sometimes have different points of view
But he knows I’m always right
So he doesn’t put up much of a fight.
I have lived so long,
I once felt so strong
Like I controlled
My own destiny.
I have always loved my kids
Despite some of the things they said and did
And what I might have said to them
Yeah, I sometimes went too far.
I hope I didn’t cause too may scars.
Now I feel like I’m on a steady march
To the point where by death do we part
But that’s all right with me
Yeah, that’s all right with me.
I have lived so long,
I am so strong
I controlled
My own destiny.
Love that good old rock and roll
It’s good for the soul
Yeah still love that rock and roll
Uh huh,
