Well now I'm just a poor young boy
and these girl's 'bout to drive me wild
ya, I'm just a poor young boy
and these girl's 'bout to drive me wild
ya, I'm just a poor young boy
and these girl's 'bout to drive me wild
they way they rock & roll and hold me, angel child
The way they laugh - the way they sing
makes my heart go ting-a-ling
the way they laugh - the way they sing
makes my heart go ting-a-ling
the way they laugh and sing
makes my heart go ting-a-ling
ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling
Well, I'm young and I'm free
and it's a real fine way to be
well, I'm young and I'm free
and it's a real fine way to be
ya, I'm young and I'm free
and it's a real fine way to be
I want a fine young gal that is so nice and free
