I Ain't Ever Slowin' Down

George Jones · Other Songs - George Jones

I ain't as old as I once was

I still got what it takes

I'm here to tell you that because

I learnt from all of my mistakes

Or I could chase a tornado

You'll know when life gets you down

A broken heart's in the racket

I ain't ever slowing down



[Chorus]

I ain't ever slowing down

I ain't getting any older

I'm still here I'm still around

And I ain't ever slowing down



The pretty women drive me crazy

That's why I'm acting this way

I'm a lover not a father

And this could be your lucky day

Oh I'm the life of the party

Where I can always be found

I'm everything to everybody

I ain't ever slowing down



[Chorus]

I ain't ever slowing down

I ain't getting any older

I'm still here I'm still around

I ain't ever slowing down



You gotta use it or you'll lose it

Then you're six feet under ground

Me I'ma just-a getting started

I ain't ever slowing down



[Chorus]

I ain't ever slowing down

I ain't getting any older

I'm still here I'm still around

I ain't ever slowing down

I Ain't Ever Slowin' Down
