Today he traded his big 98 Oldsmobile
He got a heckuva deal on a new Porsche car
And he ain't wearing his usual grey business suit
He's got jeans and high boots with an embroidered star

And today he's forty years old going on twenty
Don't look for the grey in his hair 'cause he ain't got any
He's got young thing beside him that just melts in his hands
He gone middle age crazy trying to prove he still can

He's got a woman he's loved for a long long time at home
But the thrill is all gone when they cut down the lights
They've got a business that they've been awhile coming by
It's been a long uphill climb but now the profits are high

And today he's forty years old going on twenty
And he hears of sordid affairs but he ain't had any
And the young thing beside him you know she understands
That he's middle age crazy trying to prove he still can
