The Beach Boys When I Grow Up (To Be A Man) Lyrics

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?
(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
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?
(eighteen nineteen)
When they're out having fun yeah,
will I still wanna have my share?
(twenty twenty-one)
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?
(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...)
