「YOUNG TURKS」の歌詞 Rod Stewart

Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket
And a head full of dreams
He said somehow, somewhere
It's gotta get better than this

Patty packed her bags, left a note for her Mom
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 in to 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 first full 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 round
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 pick up like a lunatic, ooh

(* Repeat)

(** Repeat)

(* Repeat)

Billy wrote a letter back home to Patty'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 talkin'
When there's nobody listenin'
So we just ran away
Patty gave birth to a ten pound baby boy, yeah

(* Repeat with ad lib)
