I sought the Fountain Of Youth
But found the Fountain Of Age
Knew something was wrong
When I took that first drink

My face started wrinkling
My hair turned white
My muscles grew weak
I was losing my life
My sight grew dim
I grew short of breath
Valley of the shadow
Shadow of death

I sought the Fountain Of Youth
But found the Fountain Of Age
Knew something was wrong
When I took that first drink

Can hardly rise
Out Of my bed
Pretty soon
I'll be dead

Music

I feel the arthritis
In my bones
Feel older than Methuselah
And Ponce de Leon
I'm aging as I speak
It won't be long
"James Ronald Colyer"
On my stone

I sought the Fountain Of Youth
But found the Fountain Of Age
Knew something was wrong
When I took that first drink

I sought the Fountain Of Youth
But found the Fountain Of Age
Knew something was wrong
When I took that first drink
