Lyrics
Well, I've been sing most my lifetime
Of Rockall, strong men an' Botany Bay
Singing songs of love and hope and freedom
While time had slowly slipped away
Have you noticed the policemen
Getting younger?
And the bus men, they're getting younger too
While all my friends are getting older
I have stayed the same, you know it's true

And Janey Mac, I'm nearly forty
I think my hair is turning grey
I'll be on the pension very shortly
And how I long for yesterday

We're so long together, it's a record
We should be in the Guinness book of fame
For twenty-five long years
We've been together
And just for spite, we'll do the same again
But there's silver threads
In Tommy's whiskers
And Derek with the beard, he's getting bald
While though he's getting kind of grumpy
While I am just not getting old

And Janey Mac, I'm nearly forty
I think my hair is turning grey
I'll be on the pension very shortly
And how I long for yesterday

So all you knockers and begrudgers
You will admit we have that touch of class
If not we'd send you our new record
And you can stick it up your - jumper!

And Janey Mac, I'm nearly forty
I think my hair is turning grey
I'll be on the pension very shortly
And how I long for yesterday
