I'm a young man, baby
And a young man I must be
I've got to live young, baby
And love young, baby
And see what I can see
So remember that you can't tie a mustang down
No, you can't tie a mustang down
And you can't keep an ocean in a cup
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up
Now I only got one heart, baby
And I'm gonna keep it hid
Oh, by the way that I hold you
You might think I love you
But I never said I did
So don't impose your will upon me
I can't stand the sound of chains
Oh, don't try to tame me
Or blame me or name me
Oh, baby, ease up on the reins
And remember that you can't tie a mustang down
No, you can't tie a mustang down
Oh, you can't put an ocean in a cup
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up
I'm a young man, baby
And a young man I must be
I've got to live young, baby
And love young, baby
And see what I can see
So remember that you can't tie a mustang down
No, you can't tie a mustang down
Oh, you can't keep an ocean in a cup
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up
(Whoa, no!)
You can't tie a mustang down
You can't tie a mustang down
You can't keep an ocean in a cup
Whoa, no, you can't tie a mustang down...or up
