Young Man Lyrics - Billy Dean

Mama cries, "Son, don't leave town 

Find a girl and settle down" 

Well, I hate to break her heart 

But that's not in the cards 

While I'm a young man 

She says I could find a job 

In the fields or on the docks 

But I've always had a dream 

To see all I can see 

While I'm a young man

When I'm just an old man on a front porch, in a chair 

Rocking with the memories from my past 

The lines you see on my face should tell a tale of no regrets 

I want to look forward to looking back on the race I ran 

When I was a young man 

I want to see those seven seas 

Climb the highest mountain peak 

Make it my career 

To make the most of every year 

While I'm a young man 

Daddy says, "Young man, I know 

You have to stand on your own, you can't sit at home" 

He says, "I understand 

Once I had big plans like you 

I was a young man too"
