YMCA - Original Version 1978

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
 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 young men to enjoy
 You can hang out with all the boys
 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
 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 young men to enjoy
 You can hang out with all the boys
 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, 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 jive
 That's when someone came up to me
 And said, young man, take a walk up the street
 It's a place there called the Y.M.C.A
 They can start you back on your way
 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 young men to enjoy
 You can hang out with all the boys
 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, get yourself off the ground
 ♪
 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 and blue
