Текст песни Thirty Again - Merle Haggard

Youth should be saved for the last
But it's wasted on the young and the fast
But I wish I could go back in time to a faster time back then
And I wish I could just be thirty a-gain
I know thirty seems old to a child
But to me it seems crazy and wild
There's so many places that a young man ain't been
And I wish I could just be thirty a-gain
Wish I could be thirty a-gain
Wish time didn't wrinkle my skin
They say life starts at fifty, we've been lied to, my friend
And I wish I could just be thirty a-gain
Wish I could be thirty a-gain
Wish time couldn't wrinkle my skin
There's so many places that a young man ain't been
And I wish I could just be thirty a-gain
