I met her in a movie house, she was playing the arcades
And posing with her hair down, looking a little bit unmade
She spoke in broken English, I replied in broken French
Come and share my popcorn, it's not a federal offense

She's so young
God help me, she's so young

Her skin was white and pudgy, she got spots all on her face
And wearing too much makeup and she wasn't walking straight
She drove her daddy's car, she got it jammed with teenage trash
She always find a pop or two hidden in her stash

She's so young
God help me, she's so young

She's so young, so young
So young, so young
She ain't never going to steal my heart away, I might not get it back
She's so young

Well I took her down to Barney's, bought her a brand new set of boots
She tottered in my arms and looking terminally cute
I tried to take it easy, put my dick back on a leash
I see big trouble coming, I'm going to beat a quick retreat

She's so young
God help me, she's so young

She's so young, so young
So young, so young
She ain't never going to steal my heart away, I might not get it back
She's so young


Yeah, so young, so young
She's so young, so young
She ain't never going to steal my heart away, I might not get it back
Yeah, she's so young


Hey

So young, so young
She's so young, she's so young
I ain't never going to give my heart away, I might not get it back
She's so young

So young, so young
She's so young, she's so young
I ain't never
going to give my heart away, I might not get it back
She's so young

Hey, so young, so young
So dumb, so young
I ain't never
going to throw my heart away, I might not get it back today
She's so young
