come back when you grow up

come back when you grow up

girl

you're still livin' in a paper-doll world

livin' ain't easy

lovin's twice as tough

so come back

baby

when you grow up

you're lookin' real good

like a woman now

your mind hasn't gotten the message somehow

so if you can't take it and the goin' gets rough

come back

baby

when you grow up

i want you

girl

but your wide-eyed innocence

has really messed up my mind

yeah

i'd rather you get your very first heartbreak

somewhere else along the line

come back when you grow up

girl

you're still livin' in a paper-doll world

someday be a woman ready to love

come back

baby

when you grow up

come back when you grow up

girl

you're still livin' in a paper-doll world

livin' ain't easy

lovin's twice as tough

so come back

baby

when you grow up

come back when you grow up

girl

you've still got a lotta time left in the world

you'll someday be a woman ready to love

come back

baby

when you grow up

come back when you grow up

girl

you're still livin' in a paper-doll world

livin' ain't easy

lovin's twice as tough
