Someday when I’m old
I’ll pull up to the store
And park wherever the hell I want to
I’ll buy a box of MoonPies
Flirt with the cashier
Yeah, like I was still twenty-two
I’ll bitch about eighteen dollars
For a gallon of gas
Down at the Texaco
Someday when I’m old
Yeah, someday when I’m old
I’ll keep chewing gum in my front pocket
And cold Dr. Pepper in the fridge
I’ll let my daughter get mad
Say I’m ruining their supper
When I give that stuff to my grandkids
I’ll realize that some things
They just don’t matter
And how fast it all goes
Someday when I’m old
The clock just starts ticking
On the day that you’re born
And no matter how much time you get
You always want more
Someday when I’m old
I’ll be the only one
That remembers you young and beautiful
Your dark hair falling on that pillow case
And all the secrets we shared
All the love that we made
And I’ll hold on to those precious moments
Like pieces of gold
Someday when I’m old
