Lyrics: 
 29 years and it's over the hill at 30
 They got your wheelchair ready
 And your hiking boots are not even dirty
 
 Lady luck, a-stepping up beside you greet her
 You'll do some climbing together
 But then she runs out for somebody younger
 
 There's a shining prize from a carefree day
 When the world round was cheering to win
 Now daddy who's chairless lets out his belt
 And music plays and peace is made for someone else
 
 Over the hill and the bread of the times is yours now
 And most deciding
 A lot of work and little enjoying
 
 Some along the line get a feeling they have been cheated
 Spirit defeated
 Young is best is always conceded
 
 There's a shining prize from a carefree day
 When the world round was cheering to win
 Now daddy who's chairless lets out his belt
 And music plays and peace is made for someone else
 
 39 years and the chair is hard to wheel at 40
 How would you feel
 If you would sit down to roll around at 20
 
 I submit to you my many friends
 Better out of tune for there to lend
 Good time, everybody in the fold
 Got sunshine for everybody young and old
 
 Good time for everybody in the fold
 Got sunshine, everybody young and old
 Sunshine for everybody in the fold
 Got good times for everybody in the fold
