Young Turks

Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full of dreams He said somehow, some way, it's gotta get better than this Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma, she was just seventeen There were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister goodbye They held each other tight as they drove on through the night they were so exited We got just one shot of life, let's take it while we're still not afraid Because life is so brief and time is a thief when you're undecided Like a fistful of sand, it can slip right through your hands Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Don't let them put you down Don't let 'em push you around Don't let 'em ever change your point of view Billy wrote a letter back home to Patti's parents tryin' to explain He said we both feel sorry that it had to turn out this way But there ain't no point in talking when there's nobody listening so we just ran away Patti gave birth to a ten pound baby boy Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Don't let them put you down Don't let 'em push you around Don't let 'em ever change your point of view WOO Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side
