Blood, Sweat & Tears - Over The Hill lyrics

29 years and it's over the hill at 30 They got your wheelchair ready And your hiking boots are not even dirty Lady luck, a-stepping up beside you greet her You'll do some climbing together But then she runs out for somebody younger There's a shining prize from a carefree day When the world round was cheering to win Now daddy who's chairless lets out his belt And music plays and peace is made for someone else Over the hill and the bread of the times is yours now And most deciding A lot of work and little enjoying Some along the line get a feeling they have been cheated Spirit defeated Young is best is always conceded There's a shining prize from a carefree day When the world round was cheering to win Now daddy who's chairless lets out his belt And music plays and peace is made for someone else 39 years and the chair is hard to wheel at 40 How would you feel If you would sit down to roll around at 20 I submit to you my many friends Better out of tune for there to lend Good time, everybody in the fold Got sunshine for everybody young and old Good time for everybody in the fold Got sunshine, everybody young and old Sunshine for everybody in the fold Got good times for everybody in the fold
