《The Older I Get》歌词

[00:00:00] The Older I Get - Larry Joe Taylor

[00:00:10] The crack of the bat

[00:00:12] The crowd cheers

[00:00:14] I close my eyes

[00:00:16] Lean back in my chair

[00:00:19] Pretending that the man

[00:00:21] Waving at the fans is me

[00:00:28] I circle the bases as the credits roll

[00:00:33] Drift off in a dream

[00:00:35] Till the next thing I know

[00:00:38] I'm out on the field

[00:00:40] And it's nineteen seventy three

[00:00:47] With my uniform on

[00:00:49] I was the happiest kid

[00:00:52] Diving head first whenever I slid

[00:00:57] I played with a passion

[00:00:59] That was somthin' else to see

[00:01:07] Now with one big break

[00:01:08] I know I couldn't made it

[00:01:11] Players these days are so overrated

[00:01:15] Yeah the older I get

[00:01:18] The better I used to be

[00:01:25] I played center field

[00:01:27] I was number three

[00:01:29] Hey I bet they're still talking about me

[00:01:34] Cause I could hit

[00:01:37] And I could throw

[00:01:38] When the lights came on

[00:01:41] I was a one man show

[00:01:47] Funny how it seems

[00:01:54] The older I get

[00:01:57] The better I used to be

[00:02:10] Now did I ever tell you

[00:02:11] About the big play

[00:02:14] When I hit a triple

[00:02:15] And saved the day

[00:02:17] Man my dad

[00:02:20] Was so proud of me

[00:02:28] And I don't tell just anyone this

[00:02:32] But my senior year

[00:02:34] I was one of the best

[00:02:36] Yeah the older I get

[00:02:39] The better I used to be

[00:02:46] I played center field

[00:02:48] I was number three

[00:02:50] Hey I bet they're still talking about me

[00:02:56] Cause I could hit

[00:02:58] And I could throw

[00:03:00] When the lights came on

[00:03:02] I was a one man show

[00:03:09] Funny how it seems

[00:03:16] The older I get

[00:03:18] The better I used to be

[00:03:31] Now in a couple of years

[00:03:32] I'll be havin' to explain

[00:03:35] Why my jersey's not hanging in the hall of fame

[00:03:39] Cause the older I get

[00:03:42] The better I used to be
