When I Was Young (Eric Burdon and The Animals cover)

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 the girls I had a bad yen And I had quite a ball When I was young When I was young it was more important Paid more pain but the laughter much louder yeah... when I was young Met my first love at thirteen She was brown and I was pretty green And I learned quite a lot When I was young. The rooms were so much colder then My father was a soldier then. And times were very hard, When I was young When I was young it was more important Paid more pain but the laughter much louder yeah... when I was young! My faith was so much stronger then I believed in fellow men And I was so much older then When I was young.
