billy dean – young man lyrics
mama cries, “son, don’t leave town
find a girl and settle down”
well, i hate to break her heart
but that’s not in the cards
while i’m a young man
she says i could find a job
in the fields or on the docks
but i’ve always had a dream
to see all i can see
while i’m a young man
when i’m just an old man on a front porch, in a chair
rocking with the memories from my past
the lines you see on my face should tell a tale of no regrets
i want to look forward to looking back on the race i ran
when i was a young man
i want to see those seven seas
climb the highest mountain peak
make it my career
to make the most of every year
while i’m a young man
daddy says, “young man, i know
you have to stand on your own, you can’t sit at home”
he says, “i understand
once i had big plans like you
i was a young man too”
when i’m just an old man on a front porch in a chair
rocking with the memories from my past
the lines you see on my face should tell a tale of no regrets
i want to look forward to looking back on the race i ran
when i was a young man
mama, please understand
i’m just a young man
i’m just a young man
