I Wished I Was 18 Again - Live - Jerry Lee Lewis

At a bar down in Dallas an old man chimed in And they thought he was out of his head

And all being a young man they just laughed it off

When they heard what this old man he said

He said I’ll never again turn the young ladies headds

Or go running off in to the wind

I’m three quarters home from the start to the end

And I wish I was eighteen again

Oh I wish I was eighteen again and going where I’ve never been

Now old folks and old oaks standing tall just pretend

I wish I was eighteen again

Time turns the pages and life goes so fast

The years turn the black hair all grey

I talk to some young folks but they don’t understand

The words this old man got to say

Oh I wish I was eighteen again…

Oh I wish I was eighteen again
