Young When I’m Old

[Verse 1]
I want 99 candles on my birthday cake
Live as long as these bones will take
Unapologetic and unashamed and wear big sunglasses
I never wanna ever stop asking why
Mix a little reckless with the wise
Smoke a cigarette once in a while in a leather jacket
And own my status

[Chorus]
I wanna die young when I'm old
Keep a little bit of wild in my soul
Never stop dreaming, never stop learning
Silver hair and years of gold
I never really wanna grow up
Finally when my time is done
Still raising hell and having fun
I wanna die young when I'm old

[Verse 2]
I never wanna lose my sense of wonder
Be a kid again when I'm a grandmother
I hope age is just a number and I never act it
With every year that passes

[Chorus]
I wanna die young when I'm old
Keep a little bit of wild in my soul
Never stop dreaming, never stop learning
Silver hair and years of gold
I never really wanna grow up
Finally when my time is done
Still raising hell and having fun
I wanna die young when I'm old

[Bridge]
I never wanna let experience
Take all of my innocence

[Chorus]
I wanna die young when I'm old
Keep a little bit of wild in my soul
Never stop dreaming, never stop learning
Silver hair and years of gold
I never wanna really grow up
Finally when my time is done
Still raising hell and having fun
I wanna die young when I'm old
I wanna die young when I'm old
