When I was young and needed my time alone
|
Jump in the pirogue, pole down the Bayou
|
Bogafalaya River was dark and cold
|
Seven years old, I couldn't find my way home
|
chorus:
|
Old times, good times
|
Old times, good times
|
When I was twelve, I learned how to play the guitar
|
Got myself a job in a jax beer bar
|
Got myself together, went to New Orleans
|
Found myself workin' for rice and beans
|
chorus
|
New York City was so damned cold
|
I had to get out of that town before I got old
|
California, rock and roll dream
|
Got too high and we blew our whole scene
|
But we had a good time
|
chorus (x2)
