Lyrics
I was the picture of vitality
now my adventures need recovery
I've slowed a step or two over time
but there ain't no mountain that I can't climb
So let me tell you son before you laugh
you may be younger than me by half
you may be faster than a bullet train
but slow and steady sometimes wins the game
They call me coffee cause I grind so fine
That man he told me back when youth was mine
I still remember everything he said
Just cause your old don't mean your good as dead
I'm still waking down the
I'm still walking down the
I'm still walking down the road
I'm still waking down the
I'm still walking down the
I'm still walking down the road
