You may think I'm silly To love a man twice my age But I know from experience, girls Sometime it pays The man I've got The fire's almost gone He can't heat up nobody's house He got just enough to keep me warm I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart Than to be a young man's fool (I'd rather be with an old man than to break a young man's heart) To love you once a month Is all an old man desires You can love a young man Seven days a week And still he's not satisfied Old man would be so grateful If you could just sit and talk But a young man is somewhere busy Doing the camel walk I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart Than to be a young man's fool (I'd rather be with an old man than to break a young man's heart) Most girls prefer a young man 'Cause a young man is strong But I'd rather put up with this old man Than have a young man doing me wrong And old man would be so grateful If you could just let him sit and talk But a young man is somewhere busy Doing the camel walk I'd rather be an old man's sweetheart Than to be a young man's fool (I'd rather be with an old man than to break a young man's heart) (I'd rather be with an old man than to break a young man's heart) Yeah, don't wanna be no fool Ain't gonna be your fool Well, I'd rather put up with this old man Again, he buys me presents He treats me good, ah-hm
