Dusty Bottles Songtext
von Willie Nelson

There′s something to be said for gettin' older
Dusty bottles pour a finer glass of wine
An old beat-up guitar just sounds better
And wisdom only comes with time

I can spot mistakes before they happen
Separate the BS from the truth
I′m learnin' when I need to keep my mouth shut
Like I couldn't in my wild and wasted youth


Don′t get me wrong
It′s good being young

But there's somethin′ to be said for gettin' wrinkles
Every song worth singin′s got those lines
And there's nothin′ you can do, it's gonna happen
Sit down and drink a beer with Father Time

Don't get me wrong
Lord, I miss bein′ young


But there′s somethin' to be said for getting older
And agin′ seems to mellow out the mind
Memories are made to sip and savour
And dusty bottles pour a finer glass of wine
