"My Next Thirty Years" is a song written by Phil Vassar and recorded by American country music artist Tim McGraw. It was released in July 2000 as the fifth and final single from McGraw's album A Place in the Sun. The song reached number one on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart and it peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1]
The song is an uptempo in which the narrator celebrates his 30th birthday and reflects on the things he will do in the next thirty years.
Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe gave the song an A grade, saying that McGraw "captures that feeling of settling in to who you’re going to be, and the growing confidence that you’re really an adult and that you’ve somewhat established yourself."[2]
"My Next Thirty Years" debuted as an album cut at number 74 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of April 8, 2000.
