Too Young to Die

<br>I recall my so called misspent youth<br>It seems more worthwhile<br>Every single day<br>Cruisin` Van Nuys and acting so uncooth<br>All the joys of runnin` away<br><br>There was no speed limit<br>On the Nevada state line<br>The air was red wine<br>On those top down nights<br>Just you and me<br>My old rollarskate<br>And the common sense <br>To know our rights<br><br>Sweet old racin` car of mine<br>Roarin` down that broken line<br>I never been so much alive<br>Too fast for comfort<br>Too low to fly<br>Too young to die<br><br>You say a man can`t love a material thing<br>With aluminum skin<br>And a cast iron soul<br>But they never heard your engine sing<br>Ah there`s peace in losing control<br>&quot;Sticky fingers&quot; turned up real loud<br>Ah, we were flirtin` with catastrophe<br>We were doing everything that`s not allowed<br>Life didn`t come<br>With a warranty<br>For you and me<br><br>Sweet old racin` car of mine<br>Roarin` down that broken line<br>I never been so much alive<br>Too fast for comfort<br>Too low to fly<br>Too young to die<br><br>There is peace in losing control<br><br>When I die I don`t wanna go to heaven<br>I just wanna drive my beautiful machine<br>Up north on some sonoma country road<br>With Jimmy Dean and Steve McQueen<br>All the boys be singin`, singin`<br><br>Sweet old racin` car of mine<br>Roarin` down that broken line<br>I never been so much alive<br>Too fast for comfort<br>Too low to fly<br>Too young to die<br><br>Just a little bit too young<br><br>Too young<br><br>To die
