Jimmy Cliff - When You're Young lyrics

Be wise, be free when you're young When you're young Well, someone told me, not long ago now You're only young but for once It's the one time in a lifetime There is no second chance, second chance So when you're young Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams There's a world waiting out there Not always what it seems Be wise, be free when you're young When you're young It's said, you got your freedom to make your own rules Be nobody's footstool And you may try now to change the world too But don't let it change you, it can't change you So when you're young Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams There's a world waiting out there Not always what it seems When you're young When you're young You see that many a people in my time of mend Telling tales of regret Step aside Grandma, step aside Grandpa There are somethings I must get, I must get When you're young Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams There's a world waiting out there Not always what it seems When you're young When you're young You know it's the right time You know it's the right time Said, I know (When you're young) Said, I know (When you're young) When you're young When you're young
