Like Mavis The Dancer

Some people seem to get better like the taste of good wine And even in old age they look and feel fine And like 'tis said of age it can only be a state of mind And in an ageing person one young at heart you can find Like Mavis the Dancer she is eighty three Don't tell her she's old with you she won't agree She is happy and cheerful and bubbly and bright And at the bowling club rooms on saturday she dances all night The praises of Mavis they ought to be sung Her hair silver grey but in her heart she feels young Her great grand-children teenagers her husband dead for years But for the past she does not have any tears At the bowling club rooms she does dance and sing She does make a case for age is a relative thing
