Something clicked inside my head
The second I turned the key
To that old red Trans-Am
The sound of all that power
My first time on the street
Made me feel like a man

Refrain:
Nobody could tell me nothin'
I didn't need anyone's advice
Never knew anybody's old man who
Ever got anything right
With every little taste of freedom
I felt about ten feet tall
Back when I was young enough
Young enough to know it all

The night I brought my girl
Home to meet my family
My dad took me aside
I can still hear him sayin'
"Son, you may think it's love
But she's gonna take you for a ride"

Refrain

A boy tryin' to be man
Yeah, he thinks that he can walk before he crawls
But that's just part of being young
Young enough to know it all

Refrain
