<pre>Young man, there's no need to feel down
<pre>Young man, there's no need to feel down
I said young man, pick yourself off the ground
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground
I said young man, 'cause your in a new town
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
There's no need to be unhappy


Young man, there's a place you can go
Young man, there's a place you can go
I said young man, when you're short on your dough
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough
You can stay there and I'm sure you will find
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time
Many ways to have a good time


It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
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 for young men to enjoy
 
They have everything for you men to enjoy
You can hang out with all the boys
You can hang out with all the boys


It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
It's fun 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
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal
You can do what ever you feel
 
* Young man, are you listening to me?
  I said, young man, what do you want to be?
  I said, young man, you can make real your dreams
  But you got to know this one thing
 
  No man does 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
 
  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 for you men to enjoy
  You can hang out with all the boys
 
  It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
  It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
