YOUNG MAN


Young man, There’s no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man,
‘Cause you’re in a new town
There’s no need to be unhappy.
Young man,
There’s a place you can go.
I said, young man,
When you’re short on your dough,
You can stay there,
And I’m sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.,
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.,
They have everything for young men to enjoy,
You can hang out with all the boys.
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A,
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.,
You can get yourself clean,
You can have a good meal,
You can do whatever you feel.
Young man, are you listenin' to me?
I said, young man, what do you want to be?
I said, young man, you can make real your dreams,
But you’ve got to know this one thing.
No man does it all by himself,
I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf,
And just go there to the Y.M.C.A.
I’m sure they can help you today.
It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.,
