Too Old To Cut The Mustard

Lyrics
[Chorus: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] Too old, too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting too old, he's done got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore [Verse 1: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] When I was young, I had a lotta pep I could get around, didn't need no help But now, you're old and getting gray The people all look at you and say [Chorus: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] Too old, too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting too old, he's done got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore [Fiddle Solo] [Verse 2: Ernest Tubb & Red Foley] I used to could jump just like a deer But now you need a new landing gear I used to could jump a picket fence But now you're lucky if you jump an inch [Chorus: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] Too old, too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting too old, he's done got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] When I was young, I had an automobile Now, they push you around in a chair with wheels I had to fight the gals off with a stick But now they say, "He makes me sick" [Chorus: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] Too old, too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting too old, he's done got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore [Piano Solo] [Verse 4: Ernest Tubb & Red Foley] When I was young and in my prime The gals all used to stand in line But now, they go the other way And as they leave, I hear them say [Chorus: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] Too old, too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore He's getting too old, he's done got too old He's too old to cut the mustard anymore [Outro: Red Foley & Ernest Tubb] He's too old to cut the mustard anymore
