thirty

well they don't slide a twenty in your birthday card no more

and there's a 50/50 shots you'll have a cake

we're throwing down the night

some of us stay out late

but some of us have babies on the way

too old to die young

too young to slow down

still got a lot to learn

some would say i've been around

probably missed my chance by now

to be an astronaut

but i've still got a lot of fire left to burn

at thirty years on earth

i'm catching up to my dad

he's gonna turn sixty this may

and for once he's twice as old as i am now

i bought a car without a cosign when my premium went down

but i still like to blow those speakers out

now that i'm too old to die young

but too young to slow down

still got a lot to learn

some would say i've been around

probably missed my chance by now

to be an astronaut

and i've still got a lot of fire left to burn

at thirty years on earth

i've beat up this guitar

it still don't look like willie nelsons

but with any luck i'll get it there some day

i got a little piece of land then i bought a girl a diamond

you know

the more i think about it i'm okay

getting too old to die young

too young to slow down

there's some things you just can't talk me into now

so what if i missed my chance

to be an astronaut?

and i've still got a lot of fire left to burn

at thirty years on earth

oh yeah

thirty years on earth

now

now

now

yeah

thirty years on earth
