"When I'm Sixty-Four" is a love song by The Beatles, written by Paul McCartney (but co-credited to John Lennon) and released in 1967 on their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It is sung by a young man to his lover, and is about his plans of growing old together with her. Although the theme is about aging, it was one of the first songs McCartney wrote, when he was sixteen.

When I'm Sixty-Four
by The Beatles
When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a Valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine
If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four
You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you
I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four
Every summer we can rent a cottage
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck and Dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

Damn that’s sad

I name my trees. George is still alive in Spruce tree version alongside Ringo. Unfortunately John and Paul died (bad tree planting). Ringo was getting pretty big for a spruce! I'm visiting my old house in August just to check on them. Am I insane? Possibly a little. I named our neighbor's tree Picea. I am super weird.

When Paul says he’ll be “losing his hair” when he’s 64 but he still has that mane of lucious silver at the ripe age of 76....? Go off Paul

@Canadian Bacon it ain't no wig. Paul has been dyeing that hair until recently. Now he's flaunting those luscious grey locks
