John Mellencamp Don`t Need This Body Lyrics

Don`t Need This Body Lyrics

This getting older, ain't for cowards

This getting older, there's a lot to go through

Ain't a gonna need this body much longer

Ain't a gonna need this body much more



Well, I can't see much like I used to

And I can't run like the wind

I don't sleep more than just a few hours

I can't remember where I've been



Ain't a gonna need this body much longer

Ain't a gonna need this body much more

I put in a ten million hours

Washed up and worn out for sure



Well, all my friends are sick or dying

And I'm here all by myself

All I got left is a head full of memories

And a thought of my upcoming death



Ain't a gonna need this body much longer

Ain't a gonna need this body much more

I put in a ten million hours

Washed up and worn out for sure



Well, I know one thing I'd die easy

And I know my life is not in vain

Because I loved and I fought with many

And the people they loved me just the same



Ain't a gonna need this body much longer

Ain't a gonna need this body much more

I put in a ten million hours

Washed up and worn out

Washed up and worn out for sure



This getting older, well it ain't for cowards

This getting older, there's a lot to go through
