This week we leave the semi-alphabetical awarding of Musician(s) Of The Week awards and present a special Musicians Of The Week to the beatles as part of the celebrations of John Kerr’s 64th birthday. No prize for guessing the feature song!
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 to 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 forever more.
Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m sixty four?
Samuel
