Cruisin' with my buddies on a Saturday night
|
Pushin' things a little too far
|
My foot's a little heavy on this candy-red Chevy
|
I'm lookin' for a party to start
|
The old folks say do something worth while
|
But right now that ain't my style
|
It might be kinda crazy it might be kinda dumb
|
But you're only young once
|
|
I've got a little darlin', she's got a daddy
|
Who don't care much for me
|
Gonna teach me a lesson, Lord I reckon
|
If I don't let her be
|
But I got a ladder and later tonight
|
If we don't get caught and all goes right
|
We'll make a little magic til the morning comes
|
Hey you're only young once
|
|
You're only young once so don't think twice
|
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
|
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
|
Cause you're only young once
|
|
When it comes to livin' a little on the edge
|
I can't seem to get enough
|
I get it from my teacher I hear it from my preacher
|
How I better straighten up
|
But they can say just what they will
|
I'm gonna get my kicks until I get my fill
|
I'm chasin' down tomorrow til the race is run
|
Hey you're only young once
|
|
You're only young once so don't think twice
|
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
|
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
|
Cause you're only young once
|
|
You're only young once so don't think twice
|
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
|
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
|
Cause you're only young once
|
|
You know you only get this chance one time
|
Live it while you can
|
