Well, I left home when I was 16
I had no reason, had no rhyme
I did not know where I was going
It did not matter at that time

And there were people on the street, people on the street
The strangest people that you'd ever meet
There were people on the street, people on the street
The strangest people that you'd ever meet

I got a job in the factory
I broke my back, I swept the floor
I met a girl who said she loved me
I hadn't heard those words before

And all I knew was love and music
Love and music got me by
And all I need is love and music
Love and music 'till I die

All I need is love and music
Love and music gets me by
All I need is love and music
Love and music 'till I die
