When I'm Sixty Four Lyrics

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...

    It's a rather naugthy song. 'Doing the gardens, dingging the weet' could mean something sexual. Also: 'Sunday mornings go for a ride'.
    I think it's a song against the bourgoisie.

    I'm now singing this... You like today. When i'm 64 (30 years later), would you mind? That's the meaning.

    Great song for the time, now there is a sequel from Ed Sheeran called thinking out loud !
    Perhaps a coincidence but true ballads do not get written every day!

    Our narrator is asking his friends and family if they will be there all the time, even at old age.
