Getting Old Lyrics by Brighten

Brighten

2017

[Verse 1]
Being young means I can do whatever I please
Whenever I want, I can grab the keys
No wife and kids, just the birds and bees
To be young like me

[Chorus]
'Cause I still have time to get around to it
If I decide I wanna do it, I'll do it
Only one mouth to feed, no hand to hold
I've heard 'em all, I wish I woulda knew it
Find a job and follow through it
No "Come to bed please, baby, I'm cold."
Being young's gettin' old

[Verse 2]
Being young means I can do whatever I want
Me and the boys, say the word and we're gonе
No white picket fencе or a nice green lawn
Just hope the car turns on

[Chorus]
'Cause I still have time to get around to it
If I decide I wanna do it, I'll do it
Only one mouth to feed, no hand to hold
I've heard 'em all, I wish I woulda knew it
Find a job and follow through it
No "Come to bed please, baby, I'm cold."
Being young's gettin' old
Yeah, it's gettin' old

[Chorus]
'Cause I still have time to get around to it
If I decide I wanna do it, I'll do it
Only one mouth to feed, no hand to hold
And I've heard 'em all, I wish I woulda knew it
Find a job and follow through it
No "Come to bed, pretty baby, I'm cold."
Being young's gettin' old
Being young's gettin' old
