Too Young

---

Baby, is it true what they say now?

Baby, they say you’ll marry any day now

Baby, you know you’re only seventeen now

Don’t you know that it’s too young?

 

Baby, you know the thing I feel for you now

Baby, is higher than the sky of blue, now

Baby, won’t you listen to what I say now?

Don’t you know that it’s too young?

 

(chorus)

Too young- to lock your life away now

Too young- to throw away the key

Too young- it aint an easy game to play now

Too young- not to be free

Too young- don’t want to see you go through hell now

Too young- with too much responsibility

Too young- ’cause I want you for myself now

Too young- too young for anyone but me.

 

(verse)

Baby, you know I see it all the time now

And baby, don’t you know that it’s crime now?

People- they rush to wed then fall and cry now

Don’t you know that it’s too young?

 

Baby, I hope and wish and kneel and pray now

That baby, you’ll think it over one more day now

‘Cause baby, I don’t wanna see you cry now

Don’t you know that it’s too young?

 

Repeat chorus
