51st Anniversary (January 11 1967) Songtext
von Jimi Hendrix

A fifty years they′ve been married

And they can't wait for their fifty first to roll around
Yeah, roll around
A thirty years they′ve been married
And now they're old and happy and they settle down
Settle down, yeah!
Twenty years they've been married
And they did everything that
That could be done
You know they′re havin′ fun

And then you come along and talk about

So you, you say you wanna be married
I'm gonna change your mind
Oh
Got to change
That was the good side baby


Here come the bad side
Ten years they′ve been married
A thousand kids running 'round hungry
Cause their mother ′s a louse
Daddy 's down at the wihiskey house

That ain′t all
For three years they've been married
They don't get along so good
They′re tired of each other, you know how that goes
She got another lover

Huh same old thing
So now you′re seventeen
Running 'round hanging out, and a havin′ your fun

Life for you has just begun, baby
And then you come saying
So you, you say you wanna be married
Oh baby
Trying to put me on a chain
Aint that some shame
You must be losing your, sweet little mind


I ain't ready yet, baby, I ain′t ready
I'm gonna change your mind
Oooh look out
Oh
I ain′t ready
To get tied down
I ain't ready
I ain't ready now
Let me live
A little while longer
Let me live
Let me live a little while longer
