Lyrics
Young
â€Well, they say everybody’s got a hungry heartâ€
â€and that some folks are born to runâ€
â€me, I’ve got my guitar and a dirty carâ€
â€on a highway leadin’ to funâ€(numera ändrat till â€highway midnight runâ€, tror jag)
â€I’d better take that thunder road and race it right into the sunâ€
â€â€™cause tonight I’m feelin’, feelin’ youngâ€
â€Or take me on that train tonightâ€
â€â€™cause I wanna leave this townâ€
â€I’m so tired of hangin’ ’round this dusty placeâ€
â€where the money’s so hard to findâ€
â€And those Quantum mechanics and laborationsâ€
â€new hope for the nationâ€
â€They all try to bring us downâ€
â€but baby, oh sugar, oh honey, we’ll always stay youngâ€
â€I’m standing here on the boardwalkâ€
â€and I’m waiting for my chanceâ€
â€like that night on that party at Pat’s houseâ€
â€all of us hopin’ for a fine romanceâ€
â€and I remember those wannabes runnin’ aroundâ€
â€with their hearts bein’ lost and I had just been foundâ€
â€Now the streets are filled with strangersâ€
â€like they’ve never been beforeâ€
â€The guys just dream of girls and gloryâ€
â€and the girls show more and moreâ€
â€And those Quantum mechanics and laborationsâ€
â€new hope for the nationâ€
â€They all try to bring us downâ€
â€but baby, oh sugar, oh honey, we’ll always stay youngâ€
