When I Grew Up Lyrics

When I grow up to be a man

Will I dig the same things that turn me on as a kid?

Will I look back and say that I wish I hadnt done what I did?

Will I joke around and still dig those sounds

When I grow up to be a man?



Will I look for the same things in a woman that I dig in a girl?

(fourteen fifteen)

Will I settle down fast or will I first wanna travel the world?

(sixteen seventeen)

Now Im young and free, but how will it be

When I grow up to be a man?



Oooooo ooooooo oooooooo

Will my kids be proud or think their old man is really a square?

(eighteen nineteen)

When theyre out having fun yeah, will I still wanna have my share?

(twenty twenty-one)

Will I love my wife for the rest of my life

When I grow up to be a man?



What will I be when I grow up to be a man?

(twenty-two twenty-three)

Wont last forever

(twenty-four twenty-five)

Its kind of sad

(twenty-six twenty-seven)

Wont last forever

(twenty-eight twenty-nine)

Its kind of sad

(thirty thirty-one)

Wont last forever

(thirty-two...)
