getting older!
Lyrics
50 Goin' On Life
Verse 1
I was on the mountaintop
A few years ain't a lot
Now I'm on the other side looking down
Trying hard to make it stop
Verse 2
Thirty, I was all of that
Forty, things were fightin' back
Why's everybody always telling me
You're as old as you feel
Chorus
When I play ball with my grandkid
The next day I hurt a bit
That's all part of the ride
And when I have more than a few drinks
It ain't no big thing
I'll be sleeping by nine
That's just 50--goin' on life
Verse 3
I don't have all my hair
But I have a loving wife who cares about
Me & my hopes & my dreams & my faults
When I go on and on she don't mind it at all
Verse 4
I talk to God every now and then
A little more now than then
Funny how I hear Him a little bit louder
With each passing year
Chorus
When I play my air guitar too loud
My kids think I've gone too far
That's all part of the ride
And when I have more than a few drinks
It ain't no big thing
I'll be sleeping by nine
That's just 50--goin' on life...
Bridge
(life)...it's full of trials and tribulations
And a thousand little wondrous destinations
Chorus
When I play ball with my grandkid
The next day I hurt a bit
That's all part of the ride
And when I have more than a few drinks
It ain't no big thing
I'll be sleeping by nine
That's just 50--goin' on life
