"What the hell happened
After school you looked fine"
"Nothing", it wasn't my first time
Justifying a black eye
She says, "They say this shit will kill you
But I don't think it will
It'll help ease the pain
It'll help you chill"

Ain't it good to be young
Ain't it good to be free
Not a care in the world
Not with you and me

Ain't it good to be young
Ain't it good to be free
Not a spot on the planet
That I'd rather be

Ain't it good to be young
And it good to be free
Ain't it good to be out
Tonight, just you and me

She said "Scotty, block it out, don't let the noise in"
"My mind's a factory flat out, it runs on poison"
She said "After what happened last year
I promised myself not to let boys in
But here I am with you
Yeah here I am with you"

She tells me 2 years ago she had an abortion, they hid it from her dad
100% the right call but there's no telling, what he'll do when he gets mad
He's trying to get rich selling fat sucking pills, from Japan
He's a hairy four hundred pound, deeply flawed man

He's into war war war, like you've never seen before
Snoring over the D-day special, on the Normandy shores
Didn't have a condom, I said I'm not sure this is smart
She said, "Boy, you going to live listening to your head or your heart?"

Ain't it good to be young
Ain't it good to be free
Not a care in the world
Not with you and me

Ain't it good to be young
Ain't it good to be free
Not a spot on the planet
That I'd rather be

Ain't it good to be young
And it good to be free
Ain't it good to be out
Tonight, just you and me
You and me
You and me
