Salad Days Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As I’m getting older, chip up on my shoulder
Rolling through life, to roll over and die
[Scat Singing]
Missing Hippie Jon, salad days are gone
Remembering things just to tell ‘em so long
[Scat Singing]
[Chorus]

[Scat Singing]
[Chorus]
Oh mama, actin’ like my life’s already over
Oh dear, act your age and try another year
Oh mama, actin’ like my life’s already over
Oh dear, act your age and try another year
