Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The older I get
The more I think
You only get a minute
Better live while you're in it
'Cause it's gone in a blink
[Verse 2]
And the older I get
The truer it is
It's the people you love
Not the money and stuff
That makes you rich
[Verse 3]
And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels, I'm just getting to my best years yet
[Verse 4]
The older I get
The fewer friends I have
But you don't need a lot
When the ones that you got
Have always got your back
[Verse 5]
And the older I get
The better I am
At knowing when to give
And when to just not give a damn
[Verse 6]
And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels, I'm just getting to my best years yet
The older I get
[Verse 7]
And I don't mind all the lines
From all the times I've laughed and cried
Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived
[Verse 8]
The older I get
The longer I pray
I don't know why
I guess that I got more to say
[Verse 9]
And the older I get
The more thankful I feel
For the life I've had
And for the life I'm living still
