When I'm Sixty-Four
(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 til quarter to three would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm sixty-four?

Oh, you'll be older too - Ah
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 could rent a cottage in the Isle of White,
If it's not too dear
We shall skrimp and save, grandchildren at your knees,
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 an answer, fill in a form, mine forevermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm sixty-four?

Well, that was quick. And I haven't even caught up yet on the last thread. Is my chair still in the same spot?

Wow, A hobbit thread with less than 200 posts. When did you start this one, an hour ago?

I was in Trader Joe's today and heard "Fixing a Hole"! I've NEVER heard that on the radio or store music! It is one of my very favorite Beatles' songs, along with "Eleanor Rigby".

Hello! I just got my Hobbit Hole knife in the mail today!

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you ALL for your great support of America's military, and for the ways you show it.

Please do me a favor, and pass along my sincerest thanks to all involved and concerned. The gesture is indeed a heartwarming one, and the knife is already being put to work.

Have a great day, ALL!
