When I get older losing my hair, |
|
Many years from now, |
|
Will you still be sending me a valentine |
|
Birthday greetings bottle of wine? |
|
If I'd been out till quarter to three |
|
Would you lock the door, |
|
Will you still need me, |
|
will you still feed me, |
|
When I'm sixty-four? |
|
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oooo |
|
You'll be older too, (ah ah ah ah ah) |
|
And if you say the word, |
|
I could stay with you. |
|
I could be handy mending a fuse |
|
When your lights have gone. |
|
You can knit a sweater by the fireside |
|
Sunday mornings go for a ride. |
|
Doing the garden, digging the weeds, |
|
Who could ask for more? |
|
Will you still need me, |
|
will you still feed me, |
|
When I'm sixty-four? |
|
Every summer we can rent a cottage |
|
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear |
|
We shall scrimp and save |
|
Grandchildren on your knee |
|
Vera, Chuck, and Dave |
|
Send me a postcard, drop me a line, |
|
Stating point of view. |
|
Indicate precisely what you mean to say |
|
Yours sincerely, Wasting Away. |
|
Give me your answer, fill in a form |
|
Mine for evermore |
|
Will you still need me, |
|
will you still feed me, |
|
When I'm sixty-four? |
