Young man with high ideals
 
 Ready for the big time
 
 Young woman don't know how it feels
 
 When you're hit by your own kind
 
  
  Young love is a love so blind
 
 But strong as a hurricane
 
 The big world is not so kind
 
 It runs you down like a freight train
  
 
 Refrain:
 
 Who can be
 
 Who can be
 
 Moses on the mountain
 
 (2x)
  
 
 These days with a plastic card
 
 You can buy a plastic smile
 
 X-rays and hear-says
 
 They all find up in your file
  
 
 Your job isn't really your job
 
 It's just a hand-me-dow
 
 Your car isn't really your car
 
 They gave it to you so they can chase you around
  
 
 Refrain
  
 
 Don't give 'em your name
 
 Don't give 'em your number
 
 They'll take you away
 
 And put you under
  
 
 Young love is a love so blind
 
 But strong as a hurricane
 
 The big world is not so kind
 
 It keeps running you down like a freight train
  
 
 Who can be
 
 Who can be
 
 Moses on the mountain
 
 (4x)
