Young Mans Game

Young Man's Game The Doobie Brothers? | |?? ? Well now there ain't no rules and regulations | When you're playin' rock'n'roll You got your backbeat in the driver's seat | You're rollin' and it's outta control Now they say that it's a young man's game And that is who is burnin' the flame But they seem to forget who shot the rocket outta the hole You got your young string slingers | Burnin' up and down the fretboard all day You got your metal on the dark side warnin' of the judgement day But there's still a lotta of guys on the road And they're knockin' down a backbeat load | We got thirty long years of bringin' people rock'n'roll Rockin' music makes us whole, it doesn't matter if you're young or old They love to hear it on the radio, it takes their troubles away I'll tell ya what don't work for me, the crazy ideology | That says playin' that rock'n'roll is just a young man's game Now if you're playin' in a coliseum . or in a smoky ol' club | Long as all the people rockin' there's a whole lotta shakin' going on When you're singin' in harmony and you're down on your bended knee | Throw your guitar in the trunk and drive your Cadillac to the show Rockin' music makes us whole, it doesn't matter if you're young or old They love to hear it on the radio, it takes their troubles away I'll tell ya what don't work for me, the crazy ideology | n/C | That says playin' that rock'n'roll is just a young man's game Bridge: ||: :|| . . . . | . . . . | ? drum break | | Rockin' music makes us whole, it doesn't matter if you're young or old They love to hear it on the radio, it takes their troubles away I'll tell ya what don't work for me, the crazy ideology | n/C | That says playin' that rock'n'roll is just a young man's game . I'm hear to tell ya it drives me insane To hear that rock'n'roll music's just a young man's game Drivin' in my car I'm tryin' to relax But those rock'n'roll critics talkin' yak yak yak I'm hear to tell ya it drives me insane To hear that rock'n'roll music's just a young man's game Drivin' in my car I'm tryin' to relax Have Mercy those critics talkin' yak yak yak Lyrics from the Doobie Brothers website.
