Young man, now why you're feeling down?
I said young man, just pick yourself off the ground.
I said young man, because you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy.
Young man, now there's a place you can go.
I said young-young-man, when you're short on your dough
You can stay there, go to the Y.M.C.A.
I'm sure that 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.
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal,
You can do what the fuck you feel.
Young man, now are you listening to me?
I said young-young-man, what do you want to be?
I said young man, you can make real your dreams.
But you've got to know this one thing.
No man does it all by himself.
I said young-young-man, put your pride on the shelf,
And just go there, up to the Y.M.C.A.
I'm sure that 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.
You can get yourself clean, you can have a good meal,
You can do what the fuck you feel.
