From "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas:

"And all your money won't another minute buy."

How young are you
How old am I

Statements. As in, "how shitty this bar is" or "how green was my valley." Nearly deprecated usage, but he's right.

Although that reading is negated by the next line (to wit: "let's count the rings around my eyes").
