Come and Grow Old With Me in Colorado Songtext
von Tom Paxton

Governor Lamm spoke to old folks in Colorado, little darlin′.
Did you hear what the governor had to say?
If you're growing too old in Colorado, little darlin′,
You should die and get out of the way.


Come and grow old with me in Colorado, little darlin',
We'll grow old together, me and you,
And when we grow too old in Colorado, little darlin′,
We′ll do what the governor wants us to.

We'll stick our heads in the oven in Colorado, little darlin′,
We'll go out together, you and I.
We will each strike a match in Colorado, little darlin′,
We'll blow ourselves Rocky Mountain High.
