Too Old To Go 'way Little Girl Lyrics

An' don't go out in the street, little girl,
An' don't go out into town.
Now, you don't know who you'll meet, little girl,
There are bad men around.
Ah-ho, your mother, she's in love with you.
And she tells you, you oughtn't go with guys.
So go to bed at ten, let your mama tuck you in,
And turn on your Mickey Mouse night-light.
Then you make it with your mind.

Don't go out into town, little girl.
Stay safe in your house, little girl.
Your mother's wails and the inquirous tales,
Keep you, oooo, hidin', denyin'.

Don't go into the park, little girl,
You know those men are all the same.
Stay inside, alone, after dark, little girl,
Boy want's just one thing, mmm-mmm.
Don't talk about sex, you might get hexed,
God'll punish you for your dirty mind.
Now, there's no escapin' and you'd enjoy a rapin' Just to find out the facts of life.
Mama says, "Maintain your pride."

Don't go out into town, little girl.
Stay safe in the house, little girl.
Your mother's wails and the daily, news tales,
Keep you, oooo, hidin', denyin'.

Don't go into your mind, little girl,
You know the windows, they're only made of glass.
Don't let me catch you tryin' to pry, little girl,
The mirrors of illusion tumble fast.
Ah-ho, you're too far gone for anyone,
Now, I'd like to help but I can only sigh,
"You'd best maintain your mama's pride."
You lost yours the time you obeyed,
When she said, "Don't fraternize."
No place to hide.

Don't go out into town, little girl.
Stay safe in your house, little girl.
When your mother's a-gone, you continue to run,
Keep on, oooo, hiding, denyin'.
