Don't Let Us Get Sick

Don't let us get sick
 Don't let us get old
 Don't let us get stupid, all right?
 Just make us be brave
 And make us play nice
 And let us be together tonight
 The sky was on fire
 When I walked to the mill
 To take up the slack in the line
 I thought of my friends
 And the troubles they've had
 To keep me from thinking of mine
 Don't let us get sick
 Don't let us get old
 Don't let us get stupid, all right?
 Just make us be brave
 And make us play nice
 And let us be together tonight
 The moon has a face
 And it smiles on the lake
 And causes the ripples in Time
 I'm lucky to be here
 With someone I like
 Who maketh my spirit to shine
 Don't let us get sick
 Don't let us get old
 Don't let us get stupid, all right?
 Just make us be brave
 And make us play nice
 And let us be together tonight
