The rooms were so much colder then
my father was a soldier then
and times were very hard when I was young

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
and the girls I had a bad yen and I had quite a ball
when I was young

When I was young it was more important
paid more pain but the laughter much louder
yeah when I was young

Met my first love at thirteen
she was brown and I was pretty green
I learned quite a lot when I was young

The rooms were so much colder
my father was a soldier then
and times were very hard when I was young

When I was young it was more important
paid more pain but the laughter much louder
yeah when I was young

When I was young it was more important paid more pain
but the laughter much louder
yeah when I was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men
and I was so much older then when I was young

When I was young when
I was young oh oh when
I was young ooh ooh ooh ooh oh oh yeah
