How Did I Ever Grow So Old

"How did I ever grow so old?"
He said as he turned twenty-one
Ditching school and making love
Our bodies sore from too much fun
"But there's still so much left to be done
And I feel sure that you're the one
Together life won't seem so cold"
The day that he turned twenty-one

"How did I ever grow so old?"
He mused at thirty-one
Watched these tiny hands unfold
He looked down upon his son
His face was something to behold
A gaze so fierce and so bold
A gaze somehow he couldn't hold
The day that he turned thirty-one

How did I ever grow so old?
He thought when he turned forty-one
Planting seeds and risks so bold
There's hardly any time for fun
This life is like a mortgage sold
With countless payments, term unknown
See now how the children grow
He thought when he turned forty-one

Did I ever grow so old?
Did I ever grow so old?

How did I ever grow so old?
Now that I've turned fifty-one
The day his son enrolled
College nights were so much fun
But these joints are aching uncontrolled
You know I hate to be so bold
There's nothing more left to be done
As he turned fifty-one

Did you think
Did you think
Did you think
Did you think
That this world would seem so cold?

Did you think
Did you think
Did you think
Did you think
That I would ever grow so old?

He said "I thought that I was old"
When he turned sixty-one
"You're something to behold
These games we play beneath the sun
And now we've only just begun
Cuz now your grandpa's having fun
You can name this sung we've sung
How did I ever grow so young?"

Did I ever grow so old?
Did I ever grow so old?
Did I ever grow so old?
How did I ever grow so young?
Did I ever grow so old?
Did I ever grow so old?
How did I ever grow so young?
Ah ah ah ah
Did I ever grow so old?
How did I ever grow so young?
Did I ever grow so old?
