    I'm 58yrs old, 2yrs away from being 60. I can relate so much to the words of this song at this stage of my life, all of it is true. The older I get, the more thankful I am for the life that I've had thus far, irrespective of terrible childhood days and a few disappointments in my life. The older I get, the more I get to pray, in fact I never stopped praying, cause I just got too much to say, too much I still need and best of all so much to thank God for. Love this song, wow. 😊 😊 😊

      You Kids! With All your crazy musics and clothes!
      I'm 74 (almost 75. which means my age will soon match my IQ :-) )
      Praying...Only ALL THE TIME. Even if its just saying Thanks for hitting all the stop light green. I think God likes that. The little small miracles that happen every day.

      I was thinking the exact same thing that you just said, I also am 58 and I just can't get enough of this song, been thinking I'm getting old, but actually I'm not getting old, I'm just living longer and I thank God for that, but this song says it all, maybe I am just getting to the best years of my life, or at least some more good ones
      Yeah, I can relate to this song and what you just said, I was already thinking✌️🤱🫶 and the praying part and thanking God continusley 🙏

    When I was a kid we hung out with Alan Jackson all weekend at the Missouri State Fair. It was a year before he got real famous back in 1991. He played in a bud tent. My dad owned a pipeline business at the time and I remember him asking my dad if he could go to work on the pipeline because he didn't think he would make it in country music. My dad told him don't worry Alan, you're gonna make it. And my dad was right. Alan was very down to earth and one of the nicest guys you could meet.

    I want to thank you AJ for this song. My dad died in 2023 proceeding my mother in 2022. Well my dad loved this song. He used to sing this song on his karaoke machine. He wasn’t one for wanting much just to have a few beers relax with some friends, sing some songs and karaoke and this was one of them. Your song the older I get brought him great joy. I was lucky enough to record him, singing this song from start to finish, and it has become a treasure for me that I will never forget. So from my heart to yours.. Thank you and may God bless you and your family.

It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there are some pain I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people.

    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
    And the older I get
    The truer it is
    It's the people you love, not the money and stuff
    That makes you rich
    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
    The older I get
    The fewer friends I have
    But you don't need a lot when the ones that you got
    Have always got your back
    And the older I get
    The better I am
    At knowing when to give
    And when to just not give a damn
    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
    The older I get
    And I don't mind all the lines
    From all the times I've laughed and cried
    Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived
    The older I get
    The longer I pray
    I don't know why, I guess that I've
    Got more to say
    And the older I get
    The more thankful I feel
    For the life I've had and all the life I'm living still

      Ma'am Alan Jackson in my opinion is one of the best I've ever heard come across the radio. I remember going to the hunting camp with daddy when i was a boy early in the morning and hearing "Chasing that neon rainbow" my dad was killed few years later in a freak accident. Im now 39 years old and to this day when i hear that song it puts me back in that seat beside him headed up 17 to Needham, Al. I wish i could change a few things about my life.. Life for me has been less than spectacular as since dads accident im scared to love in fear of loss. Scared to death of the horrific just unexplainable world of hurt thats possible in case of unexpected loss of life or relationship. Your comment caught my attention for sure. Hope you have a blessed day to come

    Every time country music plays, especially Alan Jackson’s "The Older I Get" lose myself. Suddenly, I’m no longer an East African guy. Instead, I become a cowboy from Texas, riding across open plains, feeling the wind against my face, and living for the simple things. There’s something about those melodies that transport me to a world where the soul finds peace in the quiet moments. ❤

He's 81 and has been practicing this one to try it with our band. We play at nursing homes, cancer/diabetes/walks. We like to play music and spend some time spreading our joy with others who don't get out much. I'm a contry music fan now. I play keyboard, sing Patsy Cline, Adele and more. I love this song. It's so true. We've been married 41 years, getting to those older years.

    I’m 43, been married 25 years and have two wonderful sons. My wife and I are waiting to meet our first grandchild in April. I’ve already had one massive heart attack in February of last year. It almost took me out. My bloodwork came back not so good again and I was told that it’s mostly hereditary. I take 14 pills a day as preventative medications. I got more bad news today and I’m scared to death. All I can do is cry. I just want to meet my grandson and hold him. The way it looks, getting very much older isn’t much of an option for me. Please pray for me and my family. Pray for peace in my heart and that the stress of worrying about this will go away. I always wanted to be an old grandpa watching my grand babies running around. I don’t want them to only know me in pictures and memories. I just pray that I wake up each day and make it the best day possible. Spend as much time with my family as I can. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

    * Lycris:
    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
    And the older I get
    The truer it is
    It's the people you love, not the money and stuff
    That makes you rich
    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
    The older I get
    The fewer friends I have
    But you don't need a lot when the ones that you got
    Have always got your back
    And the older I get
    The better I am
    At knowing when to give
    And when to just not give a damn
    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
    The older I get
    And I don't mind all the lines
    From all the times I've laughed and cried
    Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived
    The older I get
    The longer I pray
    I don't know why, I guess that I
    Got more to say
    And the older I get
    The more thankful I feel
    For the life I've had, and all the life I'm living still
    God with you mate.

    This song is so true in saying the things of life as we get older. I am 71 now and married to my lovely wife of now 50 years. She is my right arm of which I could never live without. I love my kids and grandchildren more than all the money in the world. My health is not that good but I thank God for every minute he gives me. Life goes by so fast - don't take anything for granted. Thanks Alan for sharing your God given talent and writing such beautiful heart loving songs. The older I get the more I love. God bless.
