When I Come of Age Lyrics

Where have I been?
What should I be looking for?
What am I gonna be when I come of age?
Will I be strong? Yeah, yeah
Will I be a mighty man? (Mighty man)
Climb mountains if I can when I come of age?

Hey y'all, I think I'll be a movie star
Or travel to some distant star, yeah that's it
I'm gonna be an astronaut, and rocket to the moon
And then I'll be the captain of a giant ship
I'm gonna take a long, long trip to a far off land
When I become a man

And what about love? (What about love?)
Will you still be in love with me?
I sure hope you will be when I come of age
And will you be true? (Would you be true?)
Will you still want to marry me?
I guess I have to wait and see when I come of age

My folks say I'm too young for love
But they don't seem to understand
That what I feel is love inside me
A feeling I understand
And while I've got this feeling
It's you, girl, you're so grand
And I'll love you, girl, just as strong
When I become a man

Wait, be patient, honey (when, when I come of age, yeah)
You've got to believe in me
Wait, wait for me, baby (when, when I come of age)
It'll be just you and me (we're gonna be so happy)
We'll do, do all the things (when, when I come of age, yeah)
We couldn't do before
When, when I come of age (we're gonna be so happy)
When, when I come of age, yeah
When, when I come of age, yeah (we're gonna be so happy) ooh
When, when I come of age, yeah (ooh)
When, when I come of age (we're gonna be so happy)
When, when I come of age, yeah
When, when I come of age (we're gonna be so happy) ooh
When, when I come of age, yeah
