Cover art for So Young lyrics by Stone Roses, The

I'm not sure these lyrics are correct: here's what I think they should be:

Where there's life there's gotta be hope

And where there's a will there's a way

One man's meat is another man's

I gotta get up today

Where there's life there's gotta be hope

And where there's a will there's a way

Admit defeat, yet you're so young

You know I gotta get up today

Ian Brown was later dismissive of the song but I think it's an outstanding debut: that line "Where there's a will there's a way" is almost a rallying call for new bands trying to get their music out into the world, trying to make their mark. I love the emotion that Ian Brown puts into his vocal.
