String by string I go back to my past
Singing and dancing it was meant to last
My mom always told me  don’t grow up fast
My twenties were the years for me to have a blast
My thirties were good due to the birth my child
But when I turned I said Man, this is wild
When I was fifty my wife had passed and
my child had moved
When I was 60 I ran out of food
I asked my son for help but he wasn’t in the mood
Im five years away from the end of my life
Hopefully at 70 I'll be in paradise
