Ramones - When I Was Young Lyrics






The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
And times were very hard
When I was young
When I was young

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls I had a that yen
And I had quite a ball
When I was young

When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful and laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young

I met my first love at thirteen
She was brown, and I was pretty green
And I learned quite a lot
When I was young
When I was young

When I was young it was more important
Pain more painful and laughter much louder, yeah
When I was young
When I was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow men
And I was so much older then
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young...

    Im fan of both Animals with Eric Burdon and the Ramones

  25. r.... ....

    Real good cover !!! As good as the original !!!

  26. G.... ....

    Excellent cover. Not many people could take on an Eric Burdon and do it justice, but this is a very creditable performance. I rather like the instrumentation on this version, compared to the Animals' rather spare instrumentation. However, both versions are really good.

  29. C.... S....

    Great drumms! Is this Tommy Ramone?

  31. E.... P....

    Joey not dead!!!

  32. W.... J....

    this band is pure magic. it doesn't have to work as hard and it releases songs that blows complexity out of the water.

  33. S.... H....

    I like it Better than the original Animals.. it ROCKS..just a little faster. and a bit more Angry!

    S.... H....

    It's hard to top the Animals but dang this is a great version!

    S.... H....

    Yeah, I got to see them both, the Animals as a 13 yr-old usher at the State-Fair Music Hall in Dallas (''65-6?) and Joey and the Boys at Winterland in 1979? -- and they were both Tops!

    S.... H....

    I love both , Animals also very good version of this song, and Eric Burdon solo had a very nice version live .

    S.... H....

    Yes its better. Joey shines on this cover !

    S.... H....

    NO WAY MAN! Eric's voice is better. And this version's missing the "La la lala la lala"

  34. J.... C....

    VIVA RAMONES

  43. M.... G....

    @MaxRamoneSRB Takođe, cover Stonsa ''Out of Time'' je bio veći uzor za Električni Orgazam ''Bejbe ti nisi tu'' nego original.

  44. n.... ....

    oh my god! this is so unreal and still - real...

  45. R.... S....

    Nailed it......right down to teh soul of the song......

  46. c.... ....

    one of the BEST covers ever!!!

    c.... ....

    RIOT does a great version

  47. B.... ....

    Bora je jedan od najvećih živućih pjesnika i rokera na balkanu kojem nije potrebno krasti tuđe pjesme pored tolikih vlastitih ideja. To što je odao počast jednom bezvremenskom r'n'r' uratku nije krađa već obrada. Pozdrav iz Zagreba.

  48. 9.... ....

    τι χορο περα δωθε ειχαμε ριξει τοτε στο ΝΕΧΤ στη θεμιστοκλεους!

  49. G.... H....

    can't get enough of this album!!!

  50. N.... M....

    Ma Bora je lopov kao i velika većina nasih muzičara

  51. T.... ....

    @newdawnfades225 its not stolen you fucking idijote nego prepjevana...

  52. M.... G....

    @Mr666JoeyJordison666 Eric Burdon je ovo u originalu uradio.

  53. b.... t....

    Bora je bio legenda u Svoje vreme, a sad kad neko oce da ga kopira pa onda: A jao vidi ovog krade mi pesme, to vi mozete samo izmisljati. Bora je legenda i on nikoga ne kopira, vec svi njega kopiraju !!!
    Ova je pesma 92' a ovo sto pisu 2k11 moze samo da kopiraju Legende kao Bora!!!
    Ps. Ljubomorne duse moze da ga puse !!!!

  54. M.... J....

    Riblja Corba...Kad sam bio mlad....

  55. N.... Z....

    @newdawnfades225 Riblja Corba's frontman Bora djordjevic Made text 'Kad sam bio mlad' singly... and coincidence with this song was explained ten milion times .... Holy crap they are playing tomorow at belgrade beerfest ...i mean Riblja corba and marky from ramones :)

  56. I.... P....

    @newdawnfades225 Да ти ја ебам мајката

  57. R.... J....

    I love it! And it's my name! Now this is swagg!lol

  58. A.... J....

    anybody who likes this song should listen to this /watch?v=Rr-cpPA9C3Y (also very good cover) :D

  59. R.... R....

    i prefer the original by the animals

  60. b.... ....

    @beduffen just because you said that ... ;)

  61. O.... N....

    all the haters should listen to justin b... oh look, theres not a single one ;)

  62. f.... ....

    thx for upload, veeery nice cover

  63. D.... S....

    @andreaxou NO DUDE the best cover is the man who sold the world by DAVID bowie and my way by elvis pRESLEY

    D.... S....

    the man who sold the world IS A DAVID BOWIE SONG, he didn't covered... nirvana covered that song.

  64. j.... m....

    this song has been on my mind all day

  65. O.... ....

    @Hdpyou
    wow, you suck, dude.
    Eric burdon had the best blues voice that came from the british invasion.
    He sounds so damn awesome, nothing beats their version of hosue of the rising sun, that voice, hiltons arpeggio prowess, johns rythm, chas perfectly placed bass notes and Alans great soloing on the keys, damn, they rocked hard.

  66. A.... ....

    nice the animals cover!!!!

  67. f.... ....

    @Hdpyou
    I beg to differ. This is a fine and faithful cover, but are you saying Joey Ramone's voice is stronger than that of Eric Burdon?? You got to be kidding me!

  68. j.... ....

    Only 20,963 bloody views.... I can't beilive!!!!
    They kick ass!!!

    j.... ....

    quarter million now lol

    j.... ....

    you must know that the rule when the song is good to have as little views.. if possible and less than 1000.. then it is for a sure a good thing

  69. M.... ....

    great song!

    the ramones is the best band ever!!!

  70. y.... ....

    When The Ramones cover your song, you've crossed genres for sure.

  71. b.... ....

    i bought this album when it first came out ,must be some 17 years ago when i was 17 ,damn when i was young!! great memories

  72. j.... ....
