Jody Street - When I Was A Youngster lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] I can remember that when I was a little youth I wanted to fly around the world, making a new life I never thought today, I'd be where I am now Yo, wanted to be a fireman Then I lost the desire man The second I got old enough To buy myself a cider can Yeah, I was a smart little kid That side's departed me since These days you can catch me Sitting on the bench in the park with a lager and crisps [Chorus] Back when I was younger I wanted to be everything on the planet Now that I am older It seems the ambition has vanished Yeah when I was a youngster When I was a, when I was a youngster Youngster, when I was a youngster Yeah, and now that I'm older I wish I could've been everything that I wanted I'm on it [Verse 2] I think that if I think back, back to the days when I thought I didn't think that nothing that I thought would not be possible Ha, try and figure that out Back when I didn't know how To settle for a desk job bring in those pounds I wanted to live in those clouds These days I deliver those sounds I always thought of myself as a simple dreamer I never tried too hard but believed it Now all of a sudden, it's gone my way [Chorus] When I was a youngster When I was a, when I was a youngster Youngster, when I was a Yeah [Chorus] x2 I wanted, yeah
