Lyrics - When I Was Young by Animals

'
The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
And times were very hard
When
I was young
I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls,
I had a bad yen
And
I had quite a ball
When
I was young
When
I was young, it was more important
Pain more painful
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
Pain more painful
Laughter much louder
Yeah, when
I was young
When
I was young
My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow man
And
I was so much older then
When
I was young
When
I was young
When
I was young
