I wanna chase my dreams
and some butterflies
and always see the world
through a child's eyes
still be going strong
at ninety nine
and all my wrinkles
are gonna be laugh lines
oh savoring what ever life brings
but more than anything
(Chorus)
I wanna die young
At a ripe old age
I wanna have fun
every step along the way
There'll be no dust on these shoes
or time for singing the blues
gonna live my life
like I got nothing to lose
when my time is done
at a hundred and one
I wanna die young
I want a few good friends
and even fewer possessions
I want to savor the good times
and forget my transgressions
sing out loud
even if I'm off key
and where ever I'm at
is where I wanna be
climb repeats
Chorus repeats
(Bridge)
No matter how many candles on my birthday cake
I'll be grateful for every breath I take
