i need a couple songs for a 40th birthday slideshow for a man - sort of beachy, surfing songs and family songs for slides about him with his family and kids and him as a baby with his family Beach Boys have lots of surfy ones
I think this one could work
When I Grow To Be A Man
lyrics are:
When I grow up to be a man
Will I dig the same things that turn me on as a kid?
Will I look back and say that I wish I hadn't done what I did?
Will I joke around and still dig those sounds
When I grow up to be a man?
Will I look for the same things in a woman that I dig in a girl?
(fourteen fifteen)
Will I settle down fast or will I first wanna travel the world?
(sixteen seventeen)
Well I'm young and free but how will it be
When I grow up to be a man?
Oooooo Ooooooo Oooooooo
Will my kids be proud or think their old man is really a square?
(eighteen nineteen)
When they're out having fun yeah, will I still wanna have my share?
(twenty twenty-one)
Will I love my wife for the rest of my life
When I grow up to be a man?
What will I be when I grow up to be a man?
(twenty-two twenty-three)
Won't last forever
(twenty-four twenty-five)
It's kind of sad
(twenty-six twenty-seven)
Won't last forever
(twenty-eight twenty-nine)
It's kind of sad
(thirty thirty-one)
Won't last forever
(thirty-two...)
OR these could also work:
Bad to the Bone by George Thorogood
Come Together by The Beatles
Stand By Me - Ben E. King
Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy - Queen
Happy Together - The Turtles
I'll add more if I think of them! These songs were all out/popular when he was growing up. something by the bands
Led Zeppelin
The Red Hot Chilli Peppers |
