Never Grow Up
I have bent and I’ve swayed
And swung back and forth too
Then I went and I played
Did it all with my crew
Take time to have fun
So you won’t miss the glee
Just go for it and run
Even climb up a tree
If you go out and play
Just what would you do
It is for you to say
Or it is even with who
Not missing a beat
On my way out the door
I grab something sweet
And yell I want more
I always feel young
Cause I do like to play
I am very high strung
Wouldn’t you say
Play well and be healthy
To feel like a child
You will always be wealthy
Even if you are wild
I will never grow up
I will always feel new
Will you show up
To say that it’s true
I’ll be young til I’m gone
I can never be old
My life it has shone
As shiny as gold
