Only Young Once
(Paul Nelson/Larry Boone)
Cruisin' with my buddies on a Saturday night
Pushin' things a little too far
My foot's a little heavy on this candy-red Chevy
I'm lookin' for a party to start
The old folks say do something worth while
But right now that ain't my style
It might be kinda crazy it might be kinda dumb
But you're only young once
I've got a little darlin', she's got a daddy
Who don't care much for me
Gonna teach me a lesson, Lord I reckon
If I don't let her be
But I got a ladder and later tonight
If we don't get caught and all goes right
We'll make a little magic til the morning comes
Hey you're only young once
You're only young once so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Cause you're only young once
When it comes to livin' a little on the edge
I can't seem to get enough
I get it from my teacher I hear it from my preacher
How I better straighten up
But they can say just what they will
I'm gonna get my kicks until I get my fill
I'm chasin' down tomorrow til the race is run
Hey you're only young once
You're only young once so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Cause you're only young once
You're only young once so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Cause you're only young once
You know you only get this chance one time
Live it while you can
Cruisin' with my buddies on a Saturday night
Pushin' things a little too far
My foot's a little heavy on this candy-red Chevy
I'm lookin' for a party to start
The old folks say do something worth while
But right now that ain't my style
It might be kinda crazy it might be kinda dumb
But you're only young once
I've got a little darlin', she's got a daddy
Who don't care much for me
Gonna teach me a lesson, Lord I reckon
If I don't let her be
But I got a ladder and later tonight
If we don't get caught and all goes right
We'll make a little magic til the morning comes
Hey you're only young once
You're only young once so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Cause you're only young once
When it comes to livin' a little on the edge
I can't seem to get enough
I get it from my teacher I hear it from my preacher
How I better straighten up
But they can say just what they will
I'm gonna get my kicks until I get my fill
I'm chasin' down tomorrow til the race is run
Hey you're only young once
You're only young once so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Cause you're only young once
You're only young once so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat gonna roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Cause you're only young once
You know you only get this chance one time
Live it while you can
