YOUNG MAN

Stevie J Mayer

Hey young man, you’ve got a lot to learn
About giving and getting along
And it seems to me, yeah you’ve been livin’
On borrowed time, with no thanks, on my dime

But I wouldn’t wait too long, if I were you
Forever isn’t long, when it’s chasing you
And in a blink your youth can slip away

And I know, it seems so far off
Just like a big old train, heaving coal
But I was there, like you are now
Time caught me, unaware
And now I’m grey and old

I wouldn’t wait too long, if I were you
Forever isn’t long, when it’s chasing you
And in a blink your youth can slip away

So pack up your swag and just hit the street
There’s places to go and people to meet
Well you can do it your own way
But don’t you get too stale
If you fail to plan, you’re planning to fail
So don’t let it happen to you

Well that’s enough, I’ve done my best
The lectures out, go have some fun
It’s time to leave the nest

But just remember son, I’m proud of you
And whatever you do, I will have your back
Just remember son, I’ve got your back
And anytime you want, you can come back
So go and seize the day and don’t look back
