Lyrics
Cheap brown whiskey on the counter
Scrounging for a pack of camel lights
Fresh ID for the bouncer
On a Friday night
Stealing hearts like your some kinda desperado
Talking up your stories to your friends
When you're done sleeping in all morning
You're gonna do it all again
When you're young you think you're young forever
Out living wild and free that's how it's supposed to be yeah
You got the rest of your life get yourself together
Yea so light up the nights
have your day in the sun
cause you only live once
and you can't always be 21
Now the good times are just bad habits
When you see goodbye in her eyes
you're pushing 35, still getting high school high
You don't realize how fast it goes by
When you're young you think you're young forever
Out living wild and free that's how it's supposed to be yeah
Now you're running out of time to get yourself together
Cause every candle burns out
When it's all said and done
You can try all you want
but you can't always be 21
When you're young you think you're young forever
Out living wild and free that's how it's supposed to be yeah
Oooh now's the time to get yourself together
Yea you lit up the nights
Had your day in the sun
Thinking man that was fun
but you can't always be 21
oh yeah you can't always be 21
