Lyrics
For years now we've been far.
At least I've had my steal guitar, oh baby, to get me through.
All these years of preparation,
never never really knowing my final destination.
We're too young to be acting so old.
We're too young to be acting so old.
They can keep their shirt and tie
'cause we won't work if it's light outside, nah nah nah.
When would we live our lives if we work 'til we retire
it would be only in between.
We're too young to be acting so old.
And I won't let my free spirit be sold.
We're too young to be acting so old.
No more pens for paperwork
only to right the words of songs with melodies of the Earth.
I feel the weight pulling on my heart,
pulling on southward down to Memphis, steadily.
We're too young to be acting so old.
And I won't let my free spirit be sold.
We're too young to be acting so old.
She wants to settle down
in this everybody knows eveything town, nah nah nah.
Don't get me wrong I love the feeling,
but everything we havent seen is so appealing right now.
We're too young to be acting so old.
And I won't let my free spirit be sold.
We're too young to be acting so old.
And I won't let my free_________ spirit be sold.
