Forty
Kid Rock · Other Songs - Kid Rock
I can't say that I am thrilled
I never dated or known a writer,
I'll probably never will.
Well I guess I'm freaking forty,
Oh, but I'm better of them some,
Well I might be freaking forty,
But you're freaking forty-one.
Well I guess I'm freaking forty,
Now all the kids call me old man,
I... and a freaky....exam.
I guess I'm freaking forty,
But I'm better off than you!
Well I might be freaking forty,
But you're freaking forty-two.
Oh right!
Well, I guess I'm freaking forty,
Well I'm a Peter at Peter Pan,
And sometimes I feel foolish,
I make my living singing in this band.
I guess I'm freaky forty,
Well that's what my momma said,
But Bruce Springsteen is freaky sixty-two
And the Stones are almost dead.
Well, I guess I'm freaking forty,
I can't say that I am thrilled.
I still have a ... cowboy,
I don't need the little blue bills.
I guess I'm freaking forty,
Forty ain't nothing to me,
Well I might be freaky forty,
Hell I'm lying, I'm forty-three!
