when i'm sixty-four

Singer: john denver

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?

you'll be older too. and it you say the word

i would 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 & 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 forevermore. will you still need me

will you still feed me

when i'm sixty-four?
