Gone Are the Youthful Days
Gone Are The Youthful Days
Gone are the youthful days of being a cat about town
beautiful young wife and family settled this man down
Yes, memories of wild times , hell raising most nights
the many new loves, sweet makeup loving after fights
Gone are the glory days of wild songs and Rock n' Roll
living too hard, too fast was great fun that took a toll
Chasing the pretty gals and not knowing we had been caught
they set such pretty traps, "we won them" or so we thought
Gone are the many sweet things we foolhardy took for granted
we fought life, the dangerous world , with feet unsoundly planted
Each victory was a celebration of dodging shameful defeat
so many of us would rather fight, gamble and love, than eat
Now that the future has turned such to memories of the past
we must face the cold brutal truth, it all went too damn fast
