Editor's Note: One of my best friends sent this to me yesterday and I thought what the heck - maybe some of you fortyish guys out there might identify. Smiles. - LMB

Today he traded his big 98 Oldsmobile 

He got a heck of a deal 

On a new Porsche car 

He ain't wearing his usual grey business suit 

He's got jeans and high boots 

With an embroidered star 

And today he's forty years old going on twenty 

Don't look for the grey in his hair 

'Cause he ain't got any 

He's got a young thing beside him 

That just melts in his hand 

He's middle aged crazy 

Trying to prove he still can 

He's got a woman he's loved for a long long time at home 

Ah but the thrill is all gone 

When they cut down the lights 

They've got a business that they spent a while coming by 

Been a long uphill climb 

But now the profits are high 

But today he's forty years old going on twenty 

And he hears of sordid affairs and he aint had any 

And the young thing beside him 

You know she understands 

That he's middle aged crazy 

Trying to prove he still can
