Rosemary Clooney – They’re Either Too Young Or Too Old

Rosemary Clooney – They’re Either Too Young Or Too Old Lyrics

Artist: Rosemary Clooney
Song: They’re Either Too Young Or Too Old

They’re either too young, or too old
They’re either too gray or too grassy green
The pickings are poor and the crop is lean
What’s good is in the army

What’s left will never harm me
They’re either too old or too young
So, darling, you’ll never get stung
Tomorrow I’ll go hiking with that Eagle Scout unless

I get a call from grandpa for a snappy game of chess
I’ll never, never fail ya
While you are in Australia
Or off among the Rooshians

And flying over Egypt
Your heart will never be gypped
And when you get to India
I’ll still be what I’ve been to ya

I’ve looked the field over
And lo and behold
They’re either too young or too old
They’re either too bald or too bold

I’m down to the wheelchair and bassinet
My heart just refuses to get upset
I simply can’t compel it to
With no Marine to tell it to

I’m either their first breath of spring
Or else, I’m their last little fling
I either get a fossil or an adolescent pup
I either have to hold him off

Or have to hold him up
The battle is on, but the fortress will hold
They’re either too young or too old
