Liner Notes

As I wrestle with the 'getting older' thingy, it becomes my favorite theme these days. Herewith, another in that long list of Bluesy self-realizations.

Lyrics

Once I danced all night
Heart was pure fire
But now the flames gone
I'm too tired to inspire

Used to rock and roll
With a drink or two
Now I'm stuck at home
Feet ain't got no clue

Can't party like I used to
No staying up till two
Body's saying hey it's through
Can't party like I used to

Friends call from the bar
But I'm in my chair
Legs ain't what they are
Caught in the wear and tear

Oh those nights so wild
They feel so far away
Now I’m just mild
Chasing dreams by day

Can't party like I used to
No staying up till two
Body's saying hey it's through
Can't party like I used to

Party's in my head these days
Just as wild as it used to be
Takes me to another place
It's kinda killing me

Hurts to party like I used to
Wish I could fly back in time
If theres one thing I could do
Turn back pages in my mind

Can't party like I used to
No staying up till two
Body's saying hey it's through
Can't party like I used to
