Lyrics:

Got a lot of memories tied up in this placeSo much time spent in so little spaceWhat looked like the world through th
e eyes of a childKind of closes in on you after awhileIt's a place to grow up and a place to grow oldYou keep your mouth shu
t and you do what you're toldI told mama the day that I ranThis ain't no place for an angry young manMama if you could see
me right nowYou'd be so sure you failed me somehowMama you never could understandThere ain't no peace for an angry young man
A cheap hotel a long way from my homeSo many people make you feel so aloneDreams die easy out here in these streetsAnd hea
rts grow cold in the city heatI ain't never been the patient kindI got to live like I please or die tryin'At a filling stati
on with a gun in my handThe only way for an angry young man Got a lot of memories tied up in this placeTonight they're star
in' me right in the faceA lonely grave on the outskirts of townIt's three in the morning, ain't no one aroundJust like a gho
st I come out of the nightBut I'll be gone before the morning lightMama I hope that you understandThis ain't no place for a
n angry young man
