She asked me
Son when
I grow old
Will you
buy me
a house of gold
And when
your father
turns to stone
Will you
take care
of me
She asked me
Son when
I grow old
Will you
buy me
a house of gold
And when
your father
turns to stone
Will you
take care
of me
I will make you
queen of
everything you see
I'll put you
on the map
I'll cure you
of disease
Let's say we up
and left this town
And turned
our future
upside down
We'll make pretend
that you and me
Lived ever
after happily
She asked me
Son when
I grow old
Will you
buy me
a house of gold
And when
your father
turns to stone
Will you
take care
of me
I will make you
queen of
everything you see
I'll put you
on the map
I'll cure you
of disease
And since we know
that dreams
are dead
And life
turns plans up
on their head
I will plan
to be a bum
So I just might
become someone
She asked me
Son when
I grow old
Will you buy me
a house of gold
And when
your father
turns to stone
Will you
take care of me
I will make you
queen of
everything you see
I'll put you
on the map
I'll cure you
of disease
