Young Man Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well a young man
Ain't got nuthin' in the world these days
I said a young man
Ain't got nuthin' in the world these days
Well you know in the old days
When a young man was a strong man
All the people, they stepped back
When a young man walked by
But you know nowadays
It's the old man, who's got all the money
And a young man
Ain't got nuthin' in the world these days
(solo)
Nowadays it's the young man
Who ain't got nuthin' in the world these days
Ain't got nuthin'
Ain't got sweet f***-all...
