Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Age truly is just a number.

And as we look at all three of you,

I don't look at you as any kind of age,

I look at you as three individuals thriving.

That's true though that age is just a number.

Yeah!

It's attitude, I have a good attitude.

I like games, I like puzzles.

I play bridge every Friday.

And you want to know why one of your routines

makes me happy is I always say no matter what

I always do 20 minutes on the exercise bike everyday too.

So I am following in your footsteps.

(audience applauds)

Jeff quick tip I assume in terms of lifestyle,

everything in moderation right?

True that's true everything in moderation.

Except smoking.

Sometimes I eat junk food.

Occasionally so you have a break day. Okay!

I like to make, I like to cook.

I still do our cooking.

It's not so much gourmet anymore it's more like short order.

(audience laughing)

What's your favorite meal to make?

Well I like to make a marinade

of kidney beans and garbanzo beans and green beans.

It's a three bean salad.

I'm writing this down, this may be the fountain of youth.

All right well I'm gonna tell ya I--

(audience applauds)

And Reyanne you're the luckiest woman in the world.

Look at the genes that you have inherited.

I mean, I know how old you are and you are just glowing

Thank you, well I always say

I stand in the shadow's shadow of my mother.

Well I see all three of you standing tall

and I can thank you enough for being here

and sharing your story with the rest of us.

And I am gonna put your salad recipe on our website.

Today is gonna be a day of recipes for everyone watching

because we know food is medicine,

but the positivity, everything else.

There is one thing that you do that I'm not very good at.

And that's the bowling.

So I can't, I can't represent the team here in that regard,

but we do have a little gift for you.

Oh, Mom!

That you could, because we're not good bowlers

(audience applauds)

I'll have you open that first.

Thank you, thank you so much!

So open it and you tell me what you think.

Okay!

Oh!

Oh, the Doctors!

Whoa!

So that's the bowling shirt!

(audience applauds)

That's terrific!

And then,

this is your own Doctor's Bowling Ball.

Oh my god!

Thank you!

So we're gonna get the holes are going to be

they're going to be made to match your hand.

Yeah yeah, I understand.

What weight is this?

10 pounds?

That is eight pounds.

Eight? Wonderful!

Is that going to work for you?

Perfect. I'm bowling now with a 10.

(audience cheers)

But it's a little heavy.

Can you give me one of the, I'd--

(audience cheers)

Well I am just so thankful

that the three of you came here today to share your story.

We'll get that fit for your hands

and then you can send us some pictures

of you bowling in the Doctor's bowling shirt

with the Doctor's bowling ball, what do you think?

Wonderful it's just wonderful I really appreciate it.

(audience applauds)

Thank you so much.

Thank you for coming.
