    A hard, driving beat, anchors this song about coming of age in the 60s, and remembering now, just how great it all was, way back when.

    Story Behind the Song
    Last fall, a 60s rock and roll band got back together in a recording studio one more time, for one magical weekend, in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. The song we created was a reflection of coming of age in that Camelot, viewing it now (as we must), 35 years on.

    Lyrics
    The Older I Get, The Better I Used To Be (Performed by The Mo’ Betta Band)


    I’m not saying
    You could’ve loved me mo’ betta
    I’m not saying
    You should’ve loved me for free
    I’m not saying
    You should’ve sent me that letter
    Seems like the older I get, the better I used to be

    A long time ago
    We thought we’d live forever
    I carved your name in that oak tree
    Our dreams were so big
    We knew we’d stay together
    Seems like the older I get, the better I used to be

    The older I get, the better I used to be
    I’m still running
    Running from my destiny

    We were 16 that year
    Weren’t nothing mo’betta
    Seems the older I get, the better I used to be

    (Guitar Solo)

    You’re too hard to handle
    I don’t want to fight
    I just want to see you tonight
    I don’t want to try but God knows I will (I will)
    When everything’s wrong and nothing seems right (right)
    I hide in my room and turn out the light
    I don’t want to cry, but God knows I will
    Until you walk through that door, once more

    The older I get, the better I used to be
    I’m still running
    Running from my destiny

    Hold on to your dreams
    Follow them forever
    Seems like the older I get, the better I used to be
    Seems like the older I get, the better I used to be , the better I used to be
