When I Was Young by Ramones, The

The rooms were so much colder then my father was a soldier then
And times were very hard when i was young when i was young

I smoked my first cigarette at ten and for girls i had a that yen
And i had quite a ball when i was young

When i was young it was more important
Pain more painful and laughter much louder, yeah
When i was young when i was young

I met my first love at thirteen she was brown, and i was pretty green
And i learned quite a lot when i was young when i was young

When i was young it was more important
Pain more painful and laughter much louder, yeah
When i was young
When i was young

My faith was so much stronger then i believed in fellow men
And i was so much older then when i was young
When i was young when i was young...
