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
