The Older The Violin The Sweeter The Music    (1974)

It seems you think that fourty five is just a little too old now
But I'm not ready yet to be put out in the cold now
I've got plenty of good love left, woman, if you'll just use it
You know the older the violin the sweeter the music

And I can play a symphony of love
Like a thousand violins singing from above
You're gonna really miss my lovin' one day when you lose it
You know the older the violin the sweeter the music

These specks of grey that's in my hair just make me look distinguished
They don't mean I'm over the hill, baby, I'm not extinguished
There's plenty of young girls waiting for my love, honey, they won't refuse it
They know the older the violin the sweeter the music

And I can play a symphony of love
Like a thousand violins singing from above
You're gonna really miss my loving one day when you lose it
You know the older the violin the sweeter the music

And I can play a symphony of love
Like a thousand violins singing from above
You're gonna really miss my loving one day when you lose it
You know the older the violin the sweeter the music

Lyrics by Curly Putnam.
