I thought gettin' older would take a lot longer than it did It seems like the day before Yesterday I was just a little snotty-nosed kid That shock of hair that I had back there went away and hid Yeah, it did But I 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 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) 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)
