Girl, you'll be a woman soon
I love you so much, can't count all the ways
I've died for you girl and all they can say
Is "He's not your kind"
They never get tired of putting me down
And I'll 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 it cuts
Like a knife
"The boy's no good"
Well I've finally found
What I'm a looking for
But if they get their
Chance they'll end it for sure
Surely would
Baby have done all I could
Now 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
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please, come take my hand
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Soon but soon, you'll need a man
Girl, you'll be a woman soon
Please, come take my hand
