|
Young and free, young and free |
|
How I feel in your company |
|
If only yesterday |
|
I'd hesitate to say |
|
What would become of me |
|
Young and free, young and free |
|
Know too much, know too much |
|
Keeps you old and gray |
|
And out of touch |
|
My words, too quick to sound |
|
The arms are slow to fold around |
|
A knowing touch |
|
Young and free, young and free |
|
The clock alarms, the day begins |
|
The lady charms, the money spends |
|
She's trying on, the satin shoes |
|
She wants to fly to Baton Rouge |
|
Ah, the clock alarms, the day begins |
|
The lady charms, the money spends |
|
She wants to buy, the satin shoes |
|
She wants to fly to Baton Rouge |
|
Autumn day, autumn day |
|
Leaves like birds |
|
Up and flown away |
|
Here's to days I used to wake up dead |
|
Alone, stay in bed |
|
The curtains drawn all day |
|
Young and free, young and free |
|
Young and free, young and free. |
