Thirty Nine And Holding (live Version) Lyrics
Thirty-Nine And Holding (Track#2)
Jerry Lee Lewis
(J. Foster, B.
Rice)
Album: Live Wembley Arena
London November 4, 1982
Transcriber: Awcantor@aol.com
He's out there
somewhere every night
The music's playin' loud
He's doing all-a
those fifty's steps
He's in a 1980 crowd
Dim lights hide
the milage line
Clairol hides the gray
And he won't mention
anything
To give his old age away
Oh Lord, he's thirty-nine
an he's holdin'
He's holdin' everything that he can
From seventeen
to twenty-five
He'll prove he's still a man
Hey boy, you're
holding to a candle
And it's a-burning at both ends
Thirty-nine and
holding
A-holdin' everything that I can
(Instrumental, piano
and fiddle solo)
Well, now you can bet he'll never see
Thirty-nine, again
Son, you oughta given up a long time ago
But
you just keep on hangin' in
He still thinks that he's the man
That he once used to be
Boy, you're just thirty-nine
And you're
dreamin'
Acting twenty-three
Oh-oh, he's thirty-nine, he's
holdin'
Holdin' everything that he can
From seventeen to
twenty-five
He'll prove he's still a man
He's a-holding to a
candle
My God, it's burning at both ends!
He's thirty-nine and he's
holdin'
Holdin' everything he can
(Instrumental and piano
solo to end)
Spoken:
He's thirty-nine and he's dreamin'.
