From the recording Every Road
Lyrics
So you're feeling kind of down because your life is almost half over
They say you can't do the things that you used to do
Well there ain't no shame in someone getting a little older
Now hold on tight because I got some news for you
Well I heard some high-class fashion guru on my TV screen
Make a statement which I must admit enlightened me
He said: 40 is the New 30 I guess I was the last to know
I can still have a good time out with the band after the show
I'm old enough to know what I want but I can still get down and dirty
So let me tell you honey "40 is the New 30"
Everybody's there at the old high school reunion
Trying to hold on to ancient memories
Complaining 'bout all these new lines and wrinkles
But baby like a good wine you sure aged fine to me… Yes indeed!
Well I heard some high-class fashion guru on my TV screen
Make a statement I hope you will find inspiring
He said: 40 is the New 30 Yeah you heard what I said
You can still take the town with your girlfriends after you put your kids to bed
Got the brains and looks to make a young boy blush if you're feeling kind of flirty
So let me tell you honey "40 is the New 30"
I don't mean for you to forget about your past
All I'm saying is that your life's a half full glass
