You're Still A Young Man - Remastered Lyrics
Tower Of Power
Lyrics
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
Down on my knees,
Heart in hand
I was accused of being too young,
But I'm not so young
Can't you understand
That I think like a man?
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time
Back once again,
Begging you please
Darling, think twice about me,
'Cause I'm not so bad
I could make you happy,
I'm not a mad lad
(You're too young to love)
If you and I could be together
(You're too young to love)
I'd get to you through any weather
(You're too young to love)
I love you and I love you only
(You're too young to love)
I'd never leave you lonely
You're too young, whoo-ooh,
Don't waste your time
The damage is done,
You'll see that you're wrong
You'll wake up wondering
Just how well I've done
Well, I've done all right
Yes, there are some girls
But you know I'd drop them on sight,
Just for you
Because I love you
You're still a young man, baby
Whoo-ooh, don't waste your time...
