Close to five decades beyond his life's prime
Old Jimmy has become a victim of time
But age does not lessen his liking for beer
And he remains partial to the pot of cheer
On Saturday evening among the pub din
His singing voice can be heard when he has a few beers in
Happy even when drunk those who know him do say
And going by them he has always been this way
In his neighborhood he has lived all of his life
He has never had children never had a wife
Since he retired from work as a plumber his work free life he enjoy
He is healthy and feels as happy as a carefree boy
If you ask him his age to you he will say
I am fifty plus thirty make of that what you may.
