Oh, that baby, you look so tired
A full-grown baby you're growin' so tired of growin' old
And how old are ya?
And were you ever really know [?]
There'll be a new sun rising
For another day's passing
Over your gray horizon
Today is the first day of the rest of your life
Time goes away
You've thought about checking out and don't deny it
Time goes away
But if you really wanna can the music
You better sleep on it
Fill your life with the love of music
Like a' rock 'n roll music
No more aging now
Today you're gonna help celebrate
Blackie's birthday
He's 22 today
It's Blackie's birthday
He's 22 today
So you're gonna get up
You're gonna wrap him up a big surprise
Today is Blackie's birthday
And we'll sing happy birthday to you
Today is the first day of the rest of your life
Time goes away
You've thought about checking out and don't deny it
Already tried it
Time won't go away, no it won't
But if you really wanna can the music
You better sleep on it
Fill your life with the love of music
Like a' rock 'n roll music
No more agin' now for us today
