Marriage Is for Old Folks
I love dancing
Crazy romancing
Fellas advancing constantly
Marriage is for old folks
Old folks, not for me
One husband
One wife
What you got?
Two people sentenced for life
I love singing
Good healthy clinging
Quietly bringing on a spree
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks
Not for me
One married he
One married she
What you got?
Two people watching TV
I'm not ready
To quit being free
And I'm not willing
To stop being me
I've gotta sing my song
Why should I belong
To some guy who says that I'm wrong?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Cooking dinner
Looking no thinner
Gray elbows and a sudsy sea
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks
And it's not for me
One husband
One wife
What you got?
Two people sentenced for life
I'm exploding with youth and with zest
Who needs corroding in some vulture's nest?
I've gotta fly my wings
Go places, do things
My freedom bell's really gonna ring
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
I've been through years
Too many blue years
Now I want New Year's every eve
Marriage is for old folks
Marriage is for cold folks
That's what I believe
One husband
One wife
What you got?
Two people sentenced for life
Marriage is for old folks
Marriage is for cold folks
Crazy romancing
Fellas advancing constantly
Marriage is for old folks
Old folks, not for me
One husband
One wife
What you got?
Two people sentenced for life
I love singing
Good healthy clinging
Quietly bringing on a spree
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks
Not for me
One married he
One married she
What you got?
Two people watching TV
I'm not ready
To quit being free
And I'm not willing
To stop being me
I've gotta sing my song
Why should I belong
To some guy who says that I'm wrong?
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Cooking dinner
Looking no thinner
Gray elbows and a sudsy sea
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks
And it's not for me
One husband
One wife
What you got?
Two people sentenced for life
I'm exploding with youth and with zest
Who needs corroding in some vulture's nest?
I've gotta fly my wings
Go places, do things
My freedom bell's really gonna ring
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
I've been through years
Too many blue years
Now I want New Year's every eve
Marriage is for old folks
Marriage is for cold folks
That's what I believe
One husband
One wife
What you got?
Two people sentenced for life
Marriage is for old folks
Marriage is for cold folks
