about

Dedicated to pickleballers everywhere.

lyrics

He picks her up on his cherry red Vespa
Heading for the pickleball courts
He's wearing neon green 'cause he likes to be seen
She wears a matching purple tank top and shorts

He's making heart healthy lifestyle decisions
She isn't worried that she's not in his will
With a prescription for grass
He's got a full tank of gas
And a pocketful of little blue pills

'Cause they're sixty-six going on sixteen
Yeah, you've gotta give 'em their due
Sixty-six going on sixteen
And you know they're having more fun than you

TTFN to her daughter and grandkids
"Meemaw's getting back on the horse"
She's gonna meet her new flame after the Mahjong game
She likes them widowed, but she'll take 'em divorced

If you doubt it
Think about it
Age is just a number, it's true
You can decide
To play the B-side
Just remember who's zooming who

Sixty-six going on sixteen
The love you take equals the love that you make
Sixty-six going on sixteen
Put sixteen candles on that R-rated cake

Sixty-six going on sixteen
Yeah, you've gotta give 'em their due
Sixty-six going on sixteen
And you know they're having more fun than you
