[Verse 1]
Checked the mail this morning
Saw a number on the page
Thought, "that can't be me yet"
But there it was in black and beige
Calendar laughing at me
Like it knows what's coming next
One foot in the thirty lane
One foot stuck in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
I used to fake it cool
Now I stare at my jeans
Try them on like armor
They don't fit the scene
[Chorus]
Got the 29 blues
The 29 blues
I'm almost thirty, baby
What am I gonna do?
Got the 29 blues
The 29 blues
Bought a truck I can't pay for
Now I'm singing to the moon
[Verse 2]
Chrome too shiny, payments ugly
Gas light blinking red
Told myself it's practical
Now it's haunting me instead
Garage full of big intentions
Wallet full of shame
I got a man-sized engine
And a small-time name
[Pre-Chorus]
I laugh like I'm fine
Then I panic in the mirror
Make a new routine
But the future's getting nearer
[Chorus]
Got the 29 blues
The 29 blues
I'm almost thirty, baby
What am I gonna do?
Got the 29 blues
The 29 blues
Bought a truck I can't pay for
Now I'm singing to the moon
[Bridge]
Mid mid life crisis
I bought a dream on credit
Tried to act like I was built for it
Now I kinda regret it
My back ain't old
But my mood sure is
If this is getting wiser
I don't know what this is
[Final Chorus]
Got the 29 blues
The 29 blues
I'm almost thirty, baby
What am I gonna do?
Got the 29 blues
The 29 blues
Bought a truck I can't pay for
Now I'm singing to the moon
Got the 29 blues
(29 blues)
I'm almost thirty, baby
(what am I gonna do?)
Got the 29 blues
(29 blues)
Guess I grew up overnight
And my truck did too
