Karaoké Go Be Young Edwin McCain

Perfumed and smoky she swears that she knows me, she's falling down drunk again

I say she's mistaken she's visibly shaken, emotions all drowned in gin

She said I used to be beautiful but now it's all gone

I let my dreams slip away from me, that's where it went wrong

Go be young

Go be free

Follow your heart where it leads you

And don't end up like me, don't end up like me

The indian in the guardhouse used to spin me yarns stories of canyons and Boston in winter

And losing his family's farms

He said: "I've outlived my three sons, they died in three wars"

"I laughed and I cried while they lived and they died and I know they deserve more"

Go be young

Go be free

Follow your heart where it leads you

And don't end up like me

Don't end up like me

Don't end up like me

Don't end up like me

I used to be powerful but now it's all gone

I used to be beautiful

And don't end up like me

And don't end up like me

Don't end up like me
