I Wish I Was Eighteen Again
Words and Music by: Sonny Throckmorton
Performed by: George Burns (1980)
Sequenced by: Ron Tilden

At a bar down in Dallas,
An old man chimed in,
And I thought he was out of his head;
Just being a young man
I just laughed it off
When I heard what that old man had said.

He said, "I'll never again turn
The young ladies' heads
Or go running off into the wind;
I'm three quarters home
From the start to the end,
And I wish I was eighteen again."

I wish I was eighteen again,
And going where I've never been.
But old folks and old oaks
Standing tall just pretend;
I wish I was eighteen again.

Now, time turns the pages
And, oh life goes so fast;
The years turn the black hair all grey.
I talked to some young folks;
Hey, they don't understand
The words this old man's got to say.

I wish I was eighteen again,
And going where I've never been.
But old folks and old oaks
Standing tall just pretend;
I wish I was eighteen again.

Lord, I wish I was eighteen again.
