Dusty Drake - Going On Eighteen Lyrics

Send "Going On Eighteen" ringtone to your cell

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

Well i moved back home stayed out slept in

Till one monday morning i heard daddy scream

You're twenty-four years old boy still going on eighteen

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

Well 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 yeah

A bunch of thirty something year old guys going on eighteen

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

Now i preach to my boy be a kid just as long as you can

But he's hell-bent and bound and determined to be his old man
