I asked my daddy how'd you get so old the day he turned 72

He said keep getting up in the morning boy and the same thing will happen to you

Because the good Lord gave us all this life and the good Lord taketh away

And you ain't gonna be better looking or any younger than you are today

Cuz time rolls on like a freight train slips away like the setting Sun

About the time you hit the finish line you'll swear you've just begun

So go on out and have a good time while there is time to get a good time done

You ain't always gonna be pretty you ain't always gonna be Young

My papa bent my ear down the day he turned 89

He said I wake up in the morning boy and thank God that I am alive

But I used to drink that whiskey me and grandma all night long

Back when we were skinny ya back when we were strong

Cuz in time rolls on like a freight train slips away like the setting Sun

About the time you hit the finish line you'll swear you've just begun

So go on out and have a good time while there is time to get a good time done

You ain't always gonna be pretty you ain't always gonna be Young

Cuz in time rolls on like a freight train slips away like the setting Sun

About the time you hit the finish line you'll swear you've just begun

So go on out and have a good time while there is time to get a good time done

You ain't always gonna be pretty you ain't always gonna be Young

You ain't always gonna be pretty you ain't always gonna be Young

You ain't always gonna be pretty you ain't always gonna be Young

No you ain't always gonna be Young
