Ballad Of Sad Young Men |
| Sing a song of sad young men |
| Glasses full of rye |
| All the news is bad again |
| Kiss your dreams goodbye |
| All the sad young men |
| Sitting in the bars |
| Knowing neon lights |
| And missing all the stars |
| All the sad young men |
| Drifting through the town |
| Drinking up the night |
| Trying not to drown |
| All the sad young men |
| Singing in the cold |
| Trying to forget |
| That they’re growing old |
| All the sad young men |
| Choking on their youth |
| Trying to be brave |
| Running from the truth |
| Autumn turns the leaves to gold |
| Slowly dies the heart |
| Sad young men are growing old |
| That’s the cruelest part |
| All the sad young men |
| Seek a certain smile |
| Someone they can hold |
| For a little while |
| Tired little girl |
| Does the best she can |
| Trying to be gay |
| For a sad young man |
| While the grimy moon |
| Watches from above |
| All the sad young men |
| Play at making love |
| Misbegotten moon |
| Shine for sad young men |
| Let your gentle light |
| Guide them home tonight |
| All the sad young men |
