Tired of Being Tired

I am tired of being tired.
Once I used to be among
All the party-loving night birds
In the days when I was young.

How I hate to sit there thinking
(And not boogying instead)
That if I just had my druthers
I’d be home and tucked in bed.

I’m so tired of being tired
But of course, if truth be told,
What the cause of my exhaustion is
That I have gotten old!
