When my kisses all misfire,
I'll get ready to retire.
When my best reflexes grow dull,
I'll head for that wedded lull.
This morbid bliss they rave about,
ain't for this mis s, there ain't no doubt.
I'll never give in while I'm
young enough to give out
I love dancing, crazy romancing,
fellas advancing constantly
Marriage is for old folks,
old folks not for me
One husband, one wife, what do you got?
Two people sentenced for life I love singing,
a good healthy clinging
Quietly bringing on a spree
Marriage is for old folks, old folks, not
for me
What married he?
What married she?
What do you got?
Two people watching
TV.
I'm not ready to quit it free.
And I'm not wearing two stuffy in me.
I gotta sing my song.
Why should I belong to some
guy who says I'm wrong?
Ding -a -ding -dong, ding -a -ding -dong
Oh -oh -oh, cookin' dinner
Lookin' no thinner
Red
Elbows in us at
D .C.
Marriage is for old folks, old folks
But it's not for me
One husband, one wife,
what do you got?
Not my kind of life
I'm exploding with youth and with zest
Who needs corroding in some
vulture's nest?
I gotta fly my wings, go places, do things
My freedom bell really rings
Ding -a -dong -ding,
ding -a -dong -ding
Cookin' dinner, lookin' no thinner,
red -haired folks in a sunset sea.
Marriage is for old folks, old,
old, old folks, not for me.
Well, one braggin' he,
one saggin' she,
What do you got?
Not my cup of tea
Ding -a -ling -dong
Ding -a -ling -dong
