Ray Charles and Willie Nelson It Was A Very Good Year Lyrics

Willie Nelson:
When I was seventeen
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
And soft summer nights
We'd hide from the lights
On the village green
When I was seventeen

Ray Charles:
When I was twenty-one
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
Who lived up the stair
With all that perfumed hair
And it came undone
When I was twenty-one

Willie Nelson:
When I was thirty-five
It was a very good year
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
Of independent means
We'd ride in limousines
And their chauffeurs would drive
When I was thirty-five

Ray Charles:
But now the days grow short
I'm in the autumn of my years
Willie Nelson:
And I think of my life as vintage wine
From fine old kegs
Ray Charles:
From the brim to the dregs
And it poured sweet and clear
Ray & Willie:
It was a very good year
