When I Was A Young Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was a young man twenty-one I wrote songs I was unsung Unheralded and undone When I was a young man [Verse 2] I lived in a house down a lane It was so beautiful there the times were insane I wrote more songs and I heard the rain In that house down the lane [Verse 3] When I was a young man I didn't know People told me, "Go man go" That's what they told me, "Go go go" When I was a young man [Verse 4] Elder brothers I had a few One was named David and the other was Lou They showed mе what it was that I could do David and Lou Yeah yeah yeah yеah yeah ah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ah yeah [Verse 5] Raised by mother raised by dad Raised by my brother in the harmony that we had I was never lonely and I was never sad I was never lonely [Verse 6] I left home at twenty-one I didn't go far I followed the sun Making it brighter for everyone I left home at twenty-one [Verse 7] A perceptive girl of twenty-one I looked high and low I found none How fast can a young man run Let me tell you there were none [Verse 8] Elder brothers they came along There was a new David and there was Tom They bewitched me in wardrobe and song When I was a young man When I was a young man When I was a young man Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah ah yeah
