Dusty Drake - Going on Eighteen lyrics
Mama preached to me, boy be a kid just as long as you can But I was hell-bent and bound and determined to be my old man I was ready to drive and I wanted a job Hungry to chase my dreams Way back when I was twelve years old going on eighteen Those four years of college I stretched into six and a half If I woke up in time after parties you'd catch me in class I moved back home, stayed out, slept in 'Til one Monday morning I heard Daddy scream You're twenty-four years old boy, going on eighteen CHORUS: Hey all I'm dying to do is to live Just tryin' to take what the day has to give Everyone wants but they don't always get what's expected of me They say act your age, don't break no mold Be young when you're young and old when you're old They say I'm in the prime of my life, hell if I know what that means In the back of my mind I'm still going on eighteen Got the wife, got the kids, got the job, got the cars and the house In life's little rulebook it falls under "all settled down" But give a handful of friends a handful drinks It's like riding a time machine Abunch of thirytsomething-year-old guys going on eighteen REPEAT CHORUS Now I preach to my boy be a kid just as long as you can But he's hell-bent and determined To be his old man |
