	Story Behind the Song The morning I turned 50, I wrote the first few lines in bed. I put it together with another melody I was working on and recorded it with my Strat, using Roland sound modeling for the bass line. Lyrics Woke this morning, couldn’t get out of bed Couldn’t believe what the calendar said Another birthday, circled in red Got The Five-Oh Birthday Blues, The Five-Oh Birthday Blues Tried to fit into last year’s clothes Hurt my back when I touched my toes I can’t see much beyond my nose I got The Five-Oh Birthday Blues, The Five-Oh Birthday Blues Chorus 1 Used to be that I could play all night Get 3 hours sleep and wake up feeling right But that was then and how it used to be Now I’m getting letters from the AARP So my stride’s a little slower Can’t do the lawn without a sit-down mower Saw an old girlfriend, and I didn’t know her I got The Five-Oh Birthday Blues, The Five-Oh Birthday Blues Chorus 2 I think of all the things I used to do At least what I recall (forgot a thing or two) And I hope that there’s still a few miles in me There’s a whole lotta world that I have yet to see So I guess that I’ll roll out of bed Try to get some music in my head Being here is better than being dead So I’m waiting for those Six-Oh Blues Just dealing with the Five-Oh Blues
