Текст песни: Thirty Nine and Holding + перевод

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

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
