To Be Young (Is To Be Sad, Is To Be High)

Young boy, you done me bad, I went and did you wrong
Young boy, you done me bad, I went and did you wrong
Then I got high, Lord I got high, and I got a bone to pick with you
And I'm sure you know it's true

Oh, one day when you're looking back
You were young and, man, you were sad
When you're young you get sad
When you're young you get sad, then you get high
Oh man

Young gal, you done me bad, and I went and did you wrong
Young gal, you done me bad, so I went and did you wrong
Then I got high, Lord I got high, now you got a bone to pick with me
But I wish you'd let me be

Oh, one day when you're looking back
You were young and, man, you were sad
When you're young you get sad
When you're young you get sad, then you get high
You get high

Oh, the days the rain would fall your way
Oh, the days the rain would fall your way
Then you be high, because you got sad
Because you got sad
Oh man
