Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon

Love you so much,
can't count all the ways.
I'd die for you girl,
and all they can say is:
"He's not your kind".

They never get tired
of putting me down.
And I never know
when I come around
what I'm gonna find.
Don't let them make up your mind.
Don't you know...

Girl, you'll be a woman soon,
please, come take my hand.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon.
Soon you'll need a man.

I've been misunderstood,
for all of my life,
but what they're saying, girl,
just cuts like a knife.
"The boy is no good".

Well, I finally found
what I've been looking for.
But if they get the chance,
they'll end it for sure.
Sure they would.
Baby, I've done all I could,
it's up to you...

Girl, you'll be a woman soon,
please come take my hand.
Girl, you'll be a woman soon,
soon you'll need a man.
