Young Man's Dream

(album: El Dorado - 2020)

Left my home when I was 17
Feet were dirty but my soul was clean
I was looking for a young man's dream, it seemed
Found a living up in Illinois
She brought me sorrow and she brought me joy
Treated me just like a rubber toy
Oh boy

Don't take long to fall in love
Takes a little time to get back where you're from
Looking at the world through electric eyes
Feel like I died and woke up in paradise

Life is over 'fore it all begins
But if you're looking for a way back in
You can say you knew me way back when
Back when

Don't take long to fall in love
Takes a little time to get back where you're from
Looking at the world through electric eyes
Feel like I died and woke up in paradise

Left my home when I was 17
My feet were dirty but my soul was clean
I'm still looking for that young man's dream
It seems
