When I was a young man
Money was my hero
Something to be seen with
Something to be believeNow looking at the big lie
Looking back on my life
I'm adding up the zeros
In the book of 'Might Have Been'When I was a young man
I was someone's hero
Someone to be seen with
Someone to believeNow looking at the big lie
Looking back on my life
All that dirty water
In the river of my dreamsOh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreamsWhen I was a young man
Being cool came easy
Playing in the big lights
Trouble came for freeNow looking at the big lie
Looking back on my life
I'm trying to find the good seed
Now I'm down here in the weedsOh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreams
Oh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreamsWhen I was a young man
Music was my savior
Took me to the fast lane
Answered all my needsNow looking at the big lie
Looking back on my life
All it did was show me
All the things that might have beenOh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreams
Oh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreamsOh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreams
Oh ohh oh, oh ohh oh
All that dirty water in my dreams
All that dirty water in my dreams
