I've treated this ol body like a stolen car,
|
Just some old disposable machine,
|
Pedal to the metal and a trail of broken hearts,
|
Yea I'd fill it up with almost anything,
|
My motto was live fast and go out strong,
|
But I never thought that I'd live this long
|
|
Once I had a woman and she treated me real good,
|
The kinda love I never will replace,
|
One day I thought I ain't seen the world the way I should,
|
So one night I got up and stepped away,
|
I knew there'd be some lonely's commin on,
|
But I never thought that I'd live this long
|
|
There have been many times I really should have died,
|
But somehow I survived on my mistakes,
|
They say it makes me stronger, but why does it take longer,
|
Gettin up these days
|
|
Yea I'm old enough to have a few regrets,
|
I'm still young enough to have my dreams,
|
Maybe that's the reason that my life ain't over yet,
|
All the places and faces I ain't seen,
|
I probably won't have time to see them all,
|
But then again I never thought I'd live this long
|
