Scotty Alexander - Young

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
