It Was A Very Good Year (live At The Sands Hotel And Casino, Las Vegas/1966 / Show 2) Lyrics - Frank Sinatra

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 

When I was twenty-one, it was a very good year 

It was a very good year for city girls 

Who lived up the stairs 

With all that perfumed hair 

That came undone 

When I was twenty-one

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 

Their chauffeurs would drive 

When I was thirty-five 

But now the days are short, I'm in the autumn of my years 

And I think of my life as vintage wine 

From fine old kegs 

From the brim to the dregs 

It poured sweet and clear 

It was a very good year
