When I’m Sixty-Four
The Beatles
redone for The Gundackers
Now that I’m older, grey in my hair
Many years gone by
Where are all those letters that you sent to me

Now I’m sixty-four
Every Sunday we went to the Hofburg
With our choir boys, one after the other

No grandchildren to be seen
Five boys well behaved
You sent me letters, called on the phone
With a calling card
You went to Denmark, Belgium and Holland
I ended up in Canberra
You gave your answer. Then we met
Madison Square Garden
Now I still need you, do you still need me
