"gettin' old" lyrics

A few months back
I was holdin' my momma's hand
While she was watchin' her momma pass
Sayin', "No, not again."
When dad's test came back
I was fallin' for a real good man
'Til it started fallin' flat
They say growin' up's fun
Where's the fun in that?

Growin' up is gettin' old
It's weighin' down on my shoulders
Growin' up. It takes a toll
Tell me when the hard part's over
One minute you're a kid
Just wishin' you could fly right down life's road
But the years roll, before you know
Growin' up's just gettin' old

All the hard work leads to a burnout
Hit the peak and I don't know where to turn now
Had the spotlight shinin' on me, but it's on her now
Gonna pray one day it'll work out

But

Growin' up is gettin' old
It's weighin' down on my shoulders
Growin' up. It takes a toll
Tell me when the hard part's over
One minute you're a kid
Just wishin' you could fly right down life's road
But the years roll, before you know
Growin' up's just gettin' old

Tell me when the hard part's over
Tell me when the sunshine and roses show up
Nothin' comes easy, I know, but
You know what, you know what

Growin' up is gettin' old
It's weighin' down on my shoulders
Growin' up, it takes a toll
Tell me when the hard part's over
One minute you're a kid
Just wishin' you could fly right down life's road
But the years roll, before you know
Growin' up's just gettin' old

Mm, growin' up's just gettin' old
Yeah, growin' up is gettin' old
