Over the Hill Lyrics

29 years and it's over the hill at 30
They got your wheelchair ready
And your hiking boots are not even dirtyLady luck, a-stepping up beside you greet her
You'll do some climbing together
But then she runs out for somebody youngerThere'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 enjoyingSome along the line get a feeling they have been cheated
Spirit defeated
Young is best is always concededThere'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 else39 years and the chair is hard to wheel at 40
How would you feel
If you would sit down to roll around at 20I 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
