Lyrics
I'd go all out from dusk to dusk
Nothing was a challenge, I just got things done
Worked all day in the hot Georgia sun
Partied all night, I was forever young
Too many mornings I come to
instead of waking up
My mind can't remember it all
but my body sure does
(chorus)
Today I'm older
Yesterday I was young
Tomorrow they'll be digging my ditch
asking me what good I've I done
Black Jack and Daniels
and sometimes a red head
Would take me for everything I had
I'd be as broke as broke could get
But I still had more money than I did since
Got a picture in my wallet
of a women I never met
It was in it when I bought it,
That's as close to love as I'll ever get
(chorus)
Today I'm older
Yesterday I was young
Tomorrow they'll be digging my ditch
asking me what good I've done
(chorus)
Today I'm older
Yesterday I was young
Tomorrow they'll be digging my ditch
asking me what good I've done
They'll be digging my ditch
asking me what good I've done
