Y.M.C.A.

Young man, there’s no need to feel down
I said young man, pick yourself off the ground
I said young man, ‘cause you’re in a new town
There’s no need to be unhappy

Young man, there’s a place you can go
I said young man, when you’re short on your dough
You can stay there, and I’m sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time

Chorus 1
   It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
   It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
   They have everything for you men to enjoy
   You can hang out with all the boys

Chorus 2
   It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
   It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
   You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
   You can do whatever you feel

Young man, are you listening to me?
I said young man, what do you want to be?
I said young man, you can make real your dreams
But you got to know this one thing

No man, does it all by himself
I said young man, put your pride on the shelf
And just go there, to the Y.M.C.A.
I’m sure they can help you today

Repeat Chorus 1 & 2

Young man, I was once in your shoes
I said I was, down and out with the blues
I felt no man, cared if I were alive
I felt the whole world was so tight

That’s when, someone came up to me
And said young man, take a walk up the street
There’s a place there, called the Y.M.C.A.
They can start you back on your way

Repeat Chorus 1

Y.M.C.A. it’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
Young man, young man, there’s no need to feel down
Young man, young man, pick yourself off the ground

Instrumental

Y.M.C.A. It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
Young man, young man, are you listening to me
Young man, young man, what do you wanna be?

Y.M.C.A. You’ll find it at the Y.M.C.A.
No man, young man, does it all by himself
Young man, young man, put your pride on the shelf

Y.M.C.A. And just go to the Y.M.C.A.
Young man, young man I was once in your shoes
Young man, young man I was down with the blues

Y.M.C.A.
