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
I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls, I had a bad yen
And I had quite a ball
When I was young
When I was young, it was more important
Pain more pain
But I laughed a much louder, Yeah
When I was young
When I was young
I met my first love at thirteen
She was brown and I was pretty green
And I learned quite a lot when I was young
When I was young
When I was young
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na
When I was young, it was more important
Pain more painful
Laughed a much louder, Yeah
When I was young
When I was young
My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow man
And I was so much older then
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young
Na na na na na na
When I was young
Kad sam bio mlad
Sobe su bile mnogo hladnije tad
A stari mi je otišao u rat
Vreme je davalo težak inat
Tad, kad sam bio mlad
Sa deset sam prvi put zapalio
Zbog jedne cure dugo patio
Lopta mi je bila jedini rad
Tad, kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad,
Sve je važno bilo tad
Bol je bio veći
Al smeh je nadjačao jad
Daa tad, kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad
Sa trinaest sam probao curu, elem
Imala je braon kosu a bio sam još zelen
Al sam posle toga naučio rad
Tad, kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad,
Sve je važno bilo tad
Bol je bio veći
Al smeh je nadjačao jad
Daa tad, kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad
Moj otac je bio mnogo strožiji tad
Verovah svakom ko da mi je brat
I bio sam mnogo stariji tad
Tad, kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad
Kad sam bio mlad
