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 Moon Pies
And flirt with the cashier
Yeah like I was still twenty-two
I ' ll b*tch 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 grand-kids
And I realize that some things
They just don ' t matter
And how fast it all goes
Someday when I ' m old
That clock just starts ticking
Oh 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
Who remembers you young and beautiful
Your dark hair falling on that pillowcase
All the secrets we shared
All the love that we made
And I ' ll hold onto those precious moments
Like pieces of gold
Someday when I ' m old
