Young Uns

Playing Cowboys and Indians
Fast Cars and Oh, the Women
Oh, to Be That Young Again
And the Times We Had Swimmin'!

The Good Guys and the Bad
It Was Easy to Decide
I Wonder Where it Went
My how Time Does Fly

The Childhood Games Are Gone Now
And the Indians Aren't Wild
The Cowboys Are Just Cowpokes
And Our Lives Have Turned Quite Mild

I've Slowed my car way down
And now I Never Chase Women
Oh I'll Never Be Young Again
 I even Float When I Go in Swimmin'

So Listen All You Young 'Uns
Make really  Good Memories
Time goes flying by so fast
And You'll End old up Just like Me
