Only Young Once Songtext
von River Road

Cruising with my buddies on a Saturday night
Pushing things a little too far
My foot′s a little heavy on this candy red Chevy
I'm looking for a party to start
The old folks say do something worthwhile
But right now that ain′t my style
It might be kinda crazy, it might be kinda dumb
But you're only young once

I've got a little darling and she′s got a daddy
He don′t care much for me
He's gonna teach me a lesson, Lord, I reckon
If I don′t let her be
But I've got a ladder and later tonight
If we don′t get caught and all goes right
We'll make a little magic till the morning comes
Hey, you′re only young once


You're only young once, so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat, gotta roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Hey, you′re only young once

When it comes to living a little on the edge
I can′t seem to get enough
I get it from my teacher, I hear it from my preacher
How I better straighten up
But they can say just what they will
I'm gonna get my kicks until I get my fill
I′m chasing down tomorrow till the race is run
Hey, you're only young once

You′re only young once, so don't think twice
Gotta rock that boat, gotta roll those dice
Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Yeah, you′re only young once

Live it to the limit, have a little fun
Yeah, you're only young once
You know, you only get this chance one time
Live it while you can
Ooh, yeah
