Lyrics

[Verse 1] What a big disgrace and a burning shame But I don't know who to blame It's a big disgrace and a burning shame I don't know who to blame These amount of old woman in the night club Hustling for a bob Stand in the way of a younger girl But it's time they retire, they too old [Chorus] Caroline and Josephine, making more than fifty And I'm sure without any doubt, they could be meh granny Still they walking 'bout at night With they face like Jack Palance Go to France! Step aside and give the youngsters a chance Oh I'm looking for youth, not experience [Verse 2] I can remembеr last year Carnival In front the cathedral Tantiе Mildred stand up, cool as ever I thought she was a beggar So I give a quarter to Mildred Saying "Mama, buy some bread" She turn around and put she han' on she waist And she cuss me upsided down in the place [Chorus] If you see the woman, brother, she more than sixty And I'm sure without any doubt, she could be meh granny Still she walking 'bout at night With her face like Jack Palance Go to France! Step aside and give the Sparrow a chance I'm looking for youth, not experience [Verse 3] Drinking in the night club with me bosom friend Who come down to spend the weekend I look back, who you think I see? One of my family "Good Heavens," I shout, "Mama Jacob What the France you doing in the night club?" Same time the rock and roll start to play She haul on to a sailor and break away [Chorus] If you see the woman, brother, she more than fifty And I'm sure without any doubt, she could be meh granny Still she walking 'bout at night With she face like Jack Palance Go to France! Stand aside and give your daughters a chance I'm looking for youth, not experience
