Dusty Drake - Going on Eighteen слова песни
Mama preached to me, boy be a kid just as long as you canBut I was hell-bent and bound and determined to be my old manI was ready to drive and I wanted a jobHungry to chase my dreamsWay back when I was twelve years old going on eighteenThose four years of college I stretched into six and a halfIf I woke up in time after parties you`d catch me in classI moved back home, stayed out, slept in`Til one Monday morning I heard Daddy screamYou`re twenty-four years old boy, going on eighteenCHORUS: Hey all I`m dying to do is to liveJust tryin` to take what the day has to giveEveryone wants but they don`t always get what`s expected of meThey say act your age, don`t break no moldBe young when you`re young and old when you`re oldThey say I`m in the prime of my life, hell if I know what that meansIn the back of my mind I`m still going on eighteenGot the wife, got the kids, got the job, got the cars and the houseIn life`s little rulebook it falls under "all settled down"But give a handful of friends a handful drinksIt`s like riding a time machineAbunch of thirytsomething-year-old guys going on eighteenREPEAT CHORUSNow I preach to my boy be a kid just as long as you canBut he`s hell-bent and determinedTo be his old man
