When I grow up to be a man
Will I dig the same things
That turned 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 take both sides?
When I grow up to be a man?
Will I look for the same things
In a woman that I dig in a girl?
Will I settle down fast
Or will I first wanna travel the world?
Now I'm young and free
But how will it be?
When I grow up to be a man
Ooooo Ooooo Ooooo
Will my kids be proud
Or think their old man's really a square?
When they're out having fun, yeah
Will I still wanna have my share
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?
Won't last forever
It's kinda sad
Won't last forever
It's kinda sad
Won't last forever
