YMCA Lyrics by Sugar Kids

Macarena and Other Great Dances for Kids

1997

[Verse 1]
Young man, there's no need to feel down, I said
Young man, pick yourself off the ground, I said
Young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
Young man, there's a place you can go, I said
Young man, when you're short on your dough you can
Stay there and I'm sure you can find
Many ways to have a good time
[Chorus]
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
They have everything that you need to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
Down at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's good to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
[Verse 2]
Young man, are you listening to me? I said
Young man, what do you want to be? I said
Young man, you can make rеal your dreams
But you've got to know this one thing
No man doеs it all by himself, I said
Young man, put your pride on the shelf
And just go there, to the Y.M.C.A. 
I'm sure they can help you today
[Chorus]
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
They have everything that you need to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
Down at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's good to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
[Verse 3]
Young man, I was once in your shoes, I said
I was down and out with the blues, I felt
No man cared if I was alive
I felt the whole world was so jive
That's when someone came up to me and said
"Young man, take a walk up the street
There's a place there called the Y.M.C.A. 
They can start you back on your way"
[Chorus]
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
They have everything that you need to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
Down at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's good to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do whatever you feel
Down at the Y.M.C.A. 
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A. 
They have everything that you need to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
[Outro]
Young man
