lyrics

I know I’ve let myself go
I’ve been living too fast when I should’ve been taking it slow
I’m a hot dog away from a heart attack
It’s time to get my life back on track
Get a band together and get back out on the road

I’ve been going out too often
Staying up too late
I’ve tried a little light exercising but I just can’t shift the weight
so I’m sucking it up
Squeezing it in
I don’t even want to look down
There’s some middle age spreading and I know where it’s heading
Everything’s going south
Going south
Going south
Going south
Everything’s going south

I know I’ve let myself go
I’ve been letting things slide and I feel like it’s starting to show
When the spoon hits the bottom of the Häagen-Dazs
You can bet your cute little country ass
There’s only one place that cookie dough’s going to go

I keep thinking that I’m younger than I really am
I’m taking naps in the afternoon wherever and whenever I can
I haven’t got time to have a good time
I’ve gotta quit goofing around
There’s some middle age spreading and I know where it’s heading
Everything’s going south
Going south
Going south
Going south
Everything’s going south

Suddenly it hits you
And that’s when you know
That you’ve got more years behind you than you’ve got left to go
It’s catching me up a little too quick
I’ve gotta start slowing it down
There’s some middle age spreading and I know where it’s heading
Everything’s going south
There’s some middle age spreading and I know where it’s heading
Everything’s going south
