about

An autobiographical song about the harsh reality of growing older.

lyrics

When I was young

I floated on by

And pushed aside the clouds

That cried and cried and cried

When I was young

I had it all

My Pa was fair and just

And my Ma wore clothes of gold

When I was young

I skated on by

And learned to try most anything

In the blink of an eye

CHORUS:

Ay……

Ay…….


When I was young

I had T Bone Steak

The fields were golden

And my bones n’re ached

Now I am old –er

And like my great gran said

If you don’t have a crown on you

Then where is your head

CHORUS repeat

So I walk among

Those that lived before

Those that are leaving

Will meet at the same door


CHORUS repeat

LAST LINE:

When I was young……
