SO YOUNG AND IN LOVE

There's flying angels on your fire escape
They lie to your mama for you, try to keep you safe
You're with them fire alley virgins on a midnight vamp
Lost your heart on Main Street to a beautiful tramp
You lost your mind
She's sent from above
You're so young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love

Rat traps filled with soul crusaders
They're soppin' 'n' boppin' 'n' moppin' with Little Melvin and the Invaders
Missy's on the dance floor doin' her stuff
Leroy's dancin' doin' the continental strut
Sent from above
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love

Everybody's reelin' when the band hits the ceilin'
Don't you know you wanna go
The kids start rockin' when the boys start knockin'
And everybody wants to go
Let's go!

Joint's shut down but you don't wanna go home
You're in the shady side of town and you're all alone
Papa's chewin' your ear off, you ain't got no cash
Mama's chewin' your ear off 'bout hangin' out with trash
So fine, sent from above
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love
So young and in love


Recorded on 06 January 1974 at the Record Plant, New York City. Published on Tracks, the base is PARADISE BY THE 'C'. Dated back in 1974. Very similar to A LOVE SO FINE. Quite identical lyrics, just the chorus is changed. Curiously played live only during the Conventional Hall shows in 17 and 18 December 2000 and 03 December 2001.

A real good rocker, this could have easily been on the album, maybe its one drawback is that its similar thematically to ROSALITA. Bruce sounds like he is having a great time doing this number, very loose and comfortable with the band. This is in stark contrast with the type of mood appearing on Darkness On The Edge Of Town just three years later.
