when i grow up (to be a man)

Singer:beach boys

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

when i grow up to be a man?

will i look for the same things in a woman that i dig in a girl?

will i settle down fast or will i first wanna travel the world?

now i'm 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?

when they're out having fun yeah

will i still wanna have my share?

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?

won't last forever

it's kind of sad

won't last forever

it's kind of sad

won't last forever
