While I'm Young (Act 1) Songtext

von Josh Abbott Band

Got off work, counting my tips
60 bucks and no cents
And nothing to do, and the rent ain't due
So I called my friends, said we're going out
No worries, I got the first round tonight
Down at The Blue Light
Doesn't matter what band plays
I'll have a beer in my hand leaning up against the stage

Someday I might be worried about saving all my cash
But tonight, all I'm looking for are memories that last
There'll be time enough for serious
When the bars are closed and all is said and done
So I'm having fun while I'm young

I got my shots and looked down the bar
Suddenly, there you are
No one by your side and that just don't seem right
So I walked up and said "Hello, do you wanna dance?
Do you wanna go somewhere, me and you?
It doesn't matter what we do
No promises or regrets
Girl, one kiss, we'll let the night take care of the rest"

Someday, I might be worried about walking down the aisle
But tonight, all I'm married to is trying to make you smile
There'll be time enough for serious when the toasts are made and the wedding bells are rung
So I'm having fun while I'm young
Living my life, while I am young
Full of dreams but I don't have plans

Young, oh, young, oh
Young, oh, young, oh

Yeah, someday I might be worried about saving all my cash
But tonight, all I'm looking for are memories that last
There'll be time enough for serious
When the bars are closed and all is said and done
So I'm having fun while I'm young, oh
Young, oh, young, oh yeah
