I knew you from the day the door got kicked in
The gang was hanging around 'cause we had some things to talk about
You were stoned from out of town,
Your head up on the moon
You needed some place to hide out and our place would have to do
Pigeon-toed and guilty just a friend of a friend of a friend
You've taken a fall and missed the ground
But just kept on going
We never knew just what it was
You weren't no Hester Prynne
But you said something before you left
That we all could believe in
You said
It's not how you swim it's how you hold your breath
It's not about playing fair in this life
It's more about cheating death
If you don't like getting old
Well you'll hate the other choice I'm told
'Cause it's a little too late to die young (it's a little too late to die young)
Ooh, It's a little too late to die young (it's a little too late to die young)
The night got long, we sang some songs and we shared some stories too
We popped the top of the last cold pop
As the sky was turning blue
All of a sudden the door crashed in
And in came six big police men
As they carries you away, you said those words again.
You said
It's not how you swim it's how you hold your breath
It's not about playing fair in this life
It's more about cheating death
If you don't like getting old
Well you'll hate the other choice I'm told
'Cause it's a little too late to die young (it's a little too late to die young)
Ooh, It's a little too late to die young (it's a little too late to die young)
Ooh. ya!
One fine day you're lookin' back
You worked ten years and you don't have jack
The dreams you had are wearing thin
But the new dream just don't let you in
Part of you wants to go out with a flash
It's a little too late for that, ooh!
(it's a little too late to die young) It's a little too late to die young
(it's a little too late to die young) It's a little too late to die young
It's a little too late, It's a little too late,
Little too late, It's a little too late,
Little too late, It's a little too late,
Ooh ya... Ooh ya...
Go tell your Mama that I told ya so
Go tell your Mama that I told ya so...
Ooh ya...
