Carly Pearce 29 Lyrics
29 by Carly Pearce
Twenty-nine
That's when you're supposed to find yourself
Start drinkin' whiskey from a higher shelf
Stop callin' your mom for help
Twenty-nine
You start payin' mortgage instead of rent
Should be pickin' out a picket fence
Instead of wonderin' where it went and wonderin' why
But for me, twenty-nine
Is the year that I got married and divorced
I held on for dear life, but I still fell off the horse
From a Miss to a Mrs. then the other way around
The year I was gonna live it up
Now I'm never gonna live it down
Twenty-nine
By now, I thought I'd have it figured out
But I've never felt as lost as I do now
And everybody says, "You're only twenty-nine"
But I feel like I'm runnin' out of time
If youth is wasted on the young, have I wasted mine?
'Cause for me, twenty-nine
Is the year that I got married and divorced
I held on for dear life, but I still fell off the horse
From a Miss to a Mrs. then the other way around
The year I was gonna live it up
Now I'm never gonna live it down
Seems like everybody else is hangin' on to it
But I swear to God I barely made my way through it
Oh, twenty-nine
Is the year that I got married and divorced
Yeah, I held on for dear life, but I still fell off the horse
From a Miss to a Mrs. then the other way around
The year I was gonna live it up
Hey, let's just call it what it was
Now I'm never gonna live it down
Mmm
That's when you're supposed to find yourself
Start drinkin' whiskey from a higher shelf
Stop callin' your mom for help
Twenty-nine
You start payin' mortgage instead of rent
Should be pickin' out a picket fence
Instead of wonderin' where it went and wonderin' why
But for me, twenty-nine
Is the year that I got married and divorced
I held on for dear life, but I still fell off the horse
From a Miss to a Mrs. then the other way around
The year I was gonna live it up
Now I'm never gonna live it down
Twenty-nine
By now, I thought I'd have it figured out
But I've never felt as lost as I do now
And everybody says, "You're only twenty-nine"
But I feel like I'm runnin' out of time
If youth is wasted on the young, have I wasted mine?
'Cause for me, twenty-nine
Is the year that I got married and divorced
I held on for dear life, but I still fell off the horse
From a Miss to a Mrs. then the other way around
The year I was gonna live it up
Now I'm never gonna live it down
Seems like everybody else is hangin' on to it
But I swear to God I barely made my way through it
Oh, twenty-nine
Is the year that I got married and divorced
Yeah, I held on for dear life, but I still fell off the horse
From a Miss to a Mrs. then the other way around
The year I was gonna live it up
Hey, let's just call it what it was
Now I'm never gonna live it down
Mmm
