When I clicked on this I was hoping it was the Burl Ives version, and it was.

Very nice version of it. He had a one of a kind voice. I have it on several Sons of the Pioneers albums as well. Here's the Gene Autry one:

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Such a sweet, clear, voice; such a beautiful, melodic song; they were made for each other. Thanks.
