Young Man's Town

You wake up one morning and it's passed you by

You don't know when and you don't know why

You feel like an old memory hangin' round

And man, you've gotta face it, it's a young man's town

You knew this day was comin' all along

So why bitch and moan and say they done you wrong?

Just teach 'em what you know an' pass it on down

'Cause man, you gotta face it, it's a young man's town

It's a young man's town

Full of young man's dreams

And all God's children

Gotta learn to spread their wings

Sometimes you gotta stand back

And watch 'em burn it to the ground

Even though you built it

It's a young man's town

You always seem to be the last to know

Man, that's just the way that the story goes

There's nothin' you can do when the fields have turned brown

Man, you gotta face it, it's a young man's town

It's a young man's town

Full of young man's dreams

And all God's children

Gotta learn to spread their wings

Sometimes you gotta stand back

And watch 'em burn it to the ground

Even though you built it

It's a young man's town

Sometimes you gotta stand back

And watch 'em burn it to the ground

Even though you built it

It's a young man's town

It's a young man's town
