Lyrics

Young boy done me bad, so I went and did you wrong
Young boy you done me bad, so I went and did you wrong
Then I got high, Lord, I got high
Oh, I got a bone to pick with you
And I'm sure you know it's true
Oh, one day when you're looking back
You were young and, man, you were sad
When you're young, you get sad
When you're young you get sad and you get high
Oh, man
Young gal done me bad, so I went and did you wrong
Young gal done me bad, so I went and did you wrong
Then I got high, whoa, Lord, I got high
You got a bone to pick with me
But I wish you'd let me be
Oh, one day when you're looking back
You was young and, man, you were sad
When you're young you get sad
When you're young you get sad
You get high
You get high
Ooh days, the rain would fall your way
Ooh days, the rain would fall your way
And you'd be high 'cause you got sad
'Cause you got sad
Oh, man
Oh, man
Oh, man
Oh, man
