The Older I Get - Alan Jackson - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"The older I get / The more I think / You only get a minute, better live while you’re in it / 'Cause it’s gone in a blink", reflects Grammy-winning US star Alan Jackson on this philosophical, fiddle-laced country ballad. Contemplating the wisdom and insight acquired with age, the Grand Ole Opry member and neotraditional country trailblazer released this single three days after his 59th birthday on October 20, 2017 and just before his official induction into the County Music Hall of Fame. On "The Older I Get" – which was written by Adam Wright, Hailey Whitters and Sarah Allison Turner and was featured on his 2021 album Where Have You Gone – Alan Jackson ultimately welcomes his older years with open arms: "And if they found a fountain of youth / I wouldn’t drink a drop and that’s the truth / Funny how it feels I’m just getting to my best years yet."
