"**You Gon' Love Young Dylan**" is the theme song that plays after the prologue of every episode of the Nickelodeon live-action comedy television series *Tyler Perry's Young Dylan*. The theme song was composed by Elvin Ross, while the lyrics was performed by Dylan Gilmer.

Since Season 4 of the series, the theme song went through a complete rework. Dylan re-performed the song with new lyrics and a new instrumental.

## Lyrics

### Season 4

**Dylan:** From the Chi down in ATL

Family living well

Uncle Myles ain't understand my style

Had to show and tell

Auntie Yas said I'm good at math

I should never fail

Cousin Beth, she a stepper

Charlie rolling with the kid

Yeah, ah (Who?)

You gon' love Young Dylan

Yeah, ah (Who?)

Who gon' love Young Dylan?

Yeah, ah (Who?)

Who gon' love Young Dylan

Yeah, ah (Who?)

You gon' love Young Dylan

Yeah, ah (Who?)

Who gon' love Young Dylan

Yeah, ah (Who?)

You gon' love Young Dylan

### Season 1—3

#### Full Version

**Dylan:** *There once was a kid from the city of Chi*
*Ma knew I was important, not a regular guy*

*On a visit to my Gram, they switched up the plan*

*Moved in with my uncle, but it's all in the fam*

*Time to make some new friends, imma get right to it*

*Young Dylan droppin bars, lemme show you how I do it*

*Everybody follow me, imma take you on a trip*

*Buckle up, let's go, imma getchu all hip*

*I'm a star, came up from a block in Chi-Town*

*Livin' large, I tryna balance school and these bars*

*Came far, ain't no better feelin'*

*I tell 'em, "You gon' love Young Dylan"*

*I'm a star, came up from a block in Chi-Town*

*Livin' large, I tryna balance school and these bars*

*Came far, ain't no better feelin'*

*I tell 'em, "You gon' love Young Dylan"*

(Ay! Young Dylan!)

(Ay! Young Dylan!)

(Ay! Young Dylan!)

*"I tell 'em, "You gon' love Young Dylan"*

*Young Dylan!*

*Young Dylan!*

*Young Dylan, Young Dylan*

*"I tell 'em, "You gon' love Young Dylan"*

*Rolling up to the front, man this crib is large*

*Time for me to take over, I'm the youngest in charge*

*Between me, Cousin Becca and Charlie, Aunty and Granny*

*Every day is like we havin' a party*

I don't go and get a deal, but I gotta keep it real

Now I finally got a fam, I think I kinda like it here

From the streets to the birbs, imma make it all mix

Sing the bars, (Lyrics incomplete)

## Trivia

* The theme song is presented as a modern rap song, this is due to Young Dylan wanting to be a song artist in the show.
* Unlike most live action Nick shows, this show has the theme song in the first episodes, despite most shows having their theme song starting from the second episode.
