(sung to the tune Autumn Leaves)

The falling hairs drift by my shoulders
The falling hairs of white and grey.
I see the hair, upon my jacket
I just started seeing them today.

Since it's going away
And soon will be gone
I thought I'd make up
A silly song.

I'll soon be bald, no lash, no brow
No hair to comb, no hair to style

The falling hairs drift by my shoulders
The falling hairs of white and grey.
