Thought Gettin' Older
I thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did
It seems like day before
Yesterday I was just a little snotty-nosed kid
That shock of hair that I had back there went away and kid (ooh)
Yeah, I did
Broader thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did
Well, I'd have thought for sure Jesus would've come back by now
(Thought He would, thought He would)
I still believe someday I'll see Him
Riding that big white horse through the clouds
I believe, it's even more right now than I did when I was a kid
Still, I thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did
(They thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did)
And I hope I have a few more years before they close that lid
Ah, come on, Larry
We've had more fun already than I'd really like to admit
Still, I thought gettin' older would take a lot longer
(He thought gettin' older would take a lot longer)
Still, I thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did
Oh, come on, Kevin, show us your stuff
I'd thought by now I'd have more money than I do
(Thought he would, thought he would), like you
Oh, but God knows best, we've all been blessed
(With more than enough to see us through)
And I wouldn't trade places with anyone else, Heaven and God forbid
Still, I thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did
Now, this simple song is just two minutes long
Come on, Larry, who we trying to kid?
But it sure seems like it took a lot longer than it did
(Thank the Lord)
