Your daddy was tall, he fought in the war
Your mama was wild, she never came home
And I was a distant daughter
Me and my friends slept with the stones
By the light of the lake, with luck in our bones
And I was the man in the moon
We'll swing (Swing)
Swing (Swing)
From the brass ring (Brass ring)
And we will (We will)
Never be this young again
Take me there again one day
Let the cold water come and wash it away
On the Russian (The Russian)
The Russian (Oh, the Russian) River
We'll swing (Swing)
Swing (Swing)
From the brass ring (Brass ring)
And we will (We will)
Never be this young again
We'll swing (Swing)
Swing (Swing)
From the brass ring (Brass ring)
'Cause we will (We will)
Never be this young
We will (We will)
Never be this young again
Never, never, never be
Never, never, never be
Never, never, never be
Never, never, never be
