I'm Young

(album: Buddy's Song - 1991)

Goodbye to the playground, I'm free at last
I've got a lot of living in me and I want to live it fast
Don't care how rough the game gets
'Cause I can pay the price, I'm feeling good and lucky
So it's time to throw the dice

I'm young, nothing's going to stop me
I'm young, want it on the run
I'm young, nothing's going to stop me
Nothing's going to stop me
Nothing's going to stop me now

Practiced in the mirror, thinking big and walking tall
I'm tired of all the waiting, now I want it all
Well I run just like a cheetah, I'm warm just like the sun
I'm cool just like an iceberg, I'm a monkey just for fun

I'm young, nothing's going to stop me
I'm young, want it on the run
I'm young, nothing's going to stop me
Nothing's going to stop me
Nothing's going to stop me now

Read life, read life
Life in the papers
Seen life, seen life
Life on TV, watch life
Life at the movies now I want some life for me

I'm young, I'm young, I'm young
Nothing's gonna stop me
Nothing's gonna stop me
Nothing's gonna stop me, now
