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 hadn't done what I did?
Will I joke around and still dig those sounds
Chorus:
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 I'm young and free, but how will it be
Chorus:
When I grow up to be a man?
Will my kids be proud or think their
old man is really a square?
(eighteen, nineteen)
When they're out having fun, yeah
Will I still want to have my share?
(twenty, twenty-one)
Will I love my wife for the rest of
my life (rest of my life)
Chorus:
When I grow up to be a man?
What will I be when I grow up to be a man?
(twenty-two, twenty-three)
Won't last forever
(twenty-four, twenty-five)
It's kind of sad
(twenty-six, twenty-seven)
Won't last forever
(twenty-eight, twenty-nine)
It's kind of sad
(thirty thirty-one)
Won't last forever
(thirty-two)
