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 mama, she was just 17 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 excited We got but one shot at 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 And 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 'em put you down, don't let 'em push you around Don't let 'em ever change your point of view Paradise was closed, so they headed for the coast in a blissful manner They took a two-room apartment that was jumping every night of the week Happiness was found in each other's arms, as expected, yeah Billy pierced his ears, drove a pickup like a lunatic, ooh, ooh-ooh Young hearts, be free tonight Time is on your side Don't let 'em put you down, don't let 'em push you around Don't let 'em ever change your point of view C'mon, babe! Young hearts, be free tonight Time is on, on your side Billy wrote a letter back home to Patti's parents, tryin' to explain He said we're both real 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, yeah Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Young hearts be free tonight Time is on your side Young hearts gotta run free, be free, live free (young hearts be free tonight) Time is on, time is on your side (Time is on your side) Time, time, time, time is on your side, is on your side, is on your side Young hearts be free tonight (young hearts be free tonight), tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, yeah (Time is on your side) Hoo-hoo hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo hoo-hoo
