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
I love dancing, crazy romancing,
fellas advancing constantly
Marriage is for old folks,
One husband, one wife, what do you got?
Two people sentenced for life I love singing,
Quietly bringing on a spree
Marriage is for old folks, old folks, not
I'm not ready to quit it free.
And I'm not wearing two stuffy in me.
Why should I belong to some
Ding -a -ding -dong, ding -a -ding -dong
Oh -oh -oh, cookin' dinner
Marriage is for old folks, old folks
I'm exploding with youth and with zest
Who needs corroding in some
I gotta fly my wings, go places, do things
My freedom bell really rings
Cookin' dinner, lookin' no thinner,
red -haired folks in a sunset sea.
Marriage is for old folks, old,
old, old folks, not for me.
