A Young Man Is Gone

Now a young man's goneBut his legend lingers onFor so much had he to giveBut his life is throughFor the story told is trueFor he died just as he livedFor this daring young starMet his death while in his carNo one knows the reason whyScreaming tire, flashing fireAnd gone was this young starOh how could they let him dieStill a young man is goneYet his legend lingers onFor he died without a causeAnd they say that he'llBe known for evermoreAs the Rebel Without A Cause
