Rehab - Alice Ruth lyrics

In a chair sit's Alice Ruth
Just turned 99 years young
And she only speaks the truth
Said getting old ain't no fun!

Back in 1917
Baby girl, she hit the world
And I can still see the love in her eyes
Now I hear the wisdom in her words
And it's crazy to imagine
Everything she's ever seen
It's been a while since she lost Ira
Said he just sat down and fell asleep

In a chair sit's Alice Ruth
Just turned 99 years young
And she only speaks the truth
Said getting old ain't no fun!

Said her farther used to tell her
Little girl, life is tough
It's all a series of adjustments
Gotta take it as it comes
Then she said she knew a rich man
Don't you know that rich man done died?
She just laughed and laughed and said
Make sure you rest when you get tired

In a chair sit's Alice Ruth
Just turned 99 years young
And she only speaks the truth
Said getting old ain't no fun!
