The song is sung by a young man to his lover, and is about his plans of growing old together with her. Although the theme is ageing, it was one of the first songs McCartney wrote, when he was 16.[3] Played by the Beatles in the early days as a song they could play when the amplifiers broke down or the electricity went off.[5][6] Both George Martin and Mark Lewisohn speculated that McCartney may have thought of the song when recording began for Sgt. Pepper in December 1966 because his father turned 64 earlier that year.[5]

Some
people are getting the facts mixed up. At 15 McCartney just wrote the
basic tune in which he copied his father's style, and the lyrics were
just thrown and weren't that great, Paul was only 15. It wasn't until
Paul was 25 that the Beatles, including George Martin, rewrote and
improved the lyrics for a Beatles album. It's an odd song of getting old
satire, with the wife leaving him and him asking her if she'll send him
a postcard and drop him a line, and him wanting her to fill in a form
to tell him if she'll share a cottage with him, like they've grown very
distant, and this being written during a time of the hippie generation
of peace and love. The lyrics must have been scoffing at the older
generation and how they treated each other, the way my parents were
around that time.
