YOU DON’T GOTTA HAVE lyrics Rick Miller copyright 2014
folks get old and they don't look so good
it ain't Hollywood, we ain't movie stars
the lucky ones, the people without problems
I don't want to know them
the people without scars
we are all
the worse for wear
I don't care about your mileage
and you don't gotta have all your teeth to be beautiful
put your hand in mine, keep smiling
when the bloom has passed its season
petals fade and fall, swirl around and blow away
you and me baby, we ain't flowers
we look better after hours than
in the bright, harsh light of day
you don't gotta dye
your grey hair
I don't care about the styling
and you don't gotta have all your teeth to be beautiful
put your hand in mine, keep smiling
