dyin' all young
He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young  Well the telephone rang off the hook While the sun was goin' down She never heard her baby callin' Now her baby ain't around It broke his mama's heart Something pulled him like the tide Up on the banks of Macedonia(?) Laid down and closed his eyes Summer nights ain't never gonna feel right Dyin' all young  He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young  Wanted to be there in your future Want you to see me when you look back Want to be around to see you glow, little cowboy Shine like lighting through a crack But you climbed back in that saddle For one more fatal ride If I had it all to do I'd lock in you in your room for good this time Summer night ain't never gonna feel right Dyin' all young  He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young  Well I don't like anything I'm seein' I don't like anything at all And when I come across your memory It always turns my skin to crawl I know I should feel lucky Lucky I'm alive One day your love bloomed like a flower That flower up and died We pump so much shit into this river The river flows into the sea Everyday I think about you Could you ever think of me?  He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' (gonna meet your maker) Dyin' all young  If you were here, I'd pick you up I'd make you say you'd had enough (He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young) I'd pat your skin pull out your hair Why go along and leave me here (He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young)  Dyin' all young (He-He didn't-He didn't-He didn't-He didn't) Gonna meet your maker Dyin' all young (He didn't even get to see the summer) He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young  (Like a hour before, plus) He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all young He didn't even get to see the summer settin' Dyin' all-dyin' all-dyin' all
