Bob Geldof - Young & Sober Lyrics

Font:

Align:

In the year of '55 when I was born a child

I felt the Lord settle on my shoulder

Now through those childish days

He would guide my guideless ways

For I was young and I was sober

And in the year of '65, a troubled life and troubled times

And the Lord, was standin' at my shoulder

And I wished that life was other but that I could be another

But I was me and I was young and sober

And in the year of '75 is when I sang myself alive

And the Lord sat whistling on my shoulder

So I stood up and I sang, and that's when my life began

And I was young and sober

And in the year of '85 we watched the millions starve and die

And the Lord, perched like the vulture on my shoulder

So we sent some bread and water, tried our best to stop the slaughter

And we were young and sober

But in the year of '95, I loved my faithless wife

And the devil must have muttered on her shoulder

So she left me for another, whom I'd once had thought my brother

And I grew drunk and older

Said in the year of '05 with a beautiful new wife

And the Lord, just sat there smiling on her shoulders

So we drank from lifers cup, watched the children growin' up

'Cause she had made me once again young and sober

For I was young and sober
