|
My father was a soldier then |
|
And times were very hard |
|
When I was young, when I was young |
|
I smoked my first cigarette at ten |
|
And for girls, I had a bad yen |
|
And I had quite on a ball |
|
When I was young |
|
When I was young it was more important |
|
Pain, more painful, laughter, much louder, yeah |
|
When I was young, when I was young |
|
I met my first love at thirteen |
|
She was brown and I was pretty green |
|
And I learned quite a lot |
|
When I was young, when I was young |
|
When I was young it was more important |
|
Pain, more painful, laughter, much louder, yeah |
|
When I was young, when I was young |
|

|
I believed in fellow men |
|
And I was so much older then |
|
When I was young, when I was young |
|
When I was young, when I was young |
|
When I was young |
