Of When You Were Younger

Of when you were younger in your physical prime

Your memories in you despite the passing of time

Of when you were an admired sportsman of the town 

And your fame transcended the local renown

You were a known star of your code of football

And many old timers today does recall

The many fine performances you gave on the field of play

By them at least you are remembered today

Nowadays the club fans have a young star footballer to admire

And of singing his praises never seem to tire

On the field of play for himself a name he has made

But like yours did in time too his fame will fade

As a sportsman you were famous many decades ago

But time to your fame it has become the foe.
