I Wish I Was Eighteen Again lyrics

At a bar down in Dallas an old man chimed in And they thought he was out of his head And all being a young man they just laughed it off When they heard what this old man he said He said I'll never again turn the young ladies headds Or go running off in to the wind I'm three quarters home from the start to the end And I wish I was eighteen again Oh I wish I was eighteen again and going where I've never been Now old folks and old oaks standing tall just pretend I wish I was eighteen again [ piano - vibes ] Time turns the pages and life goes so fast The years turn the black hair all grey I talk to some young folks but they don't understand The words this old man got to say Oh I wish I was eighteen again... Oh I wish I was eighteen again
