Almost Eighteen

Almost Eighteen - Roy Orbison

Almost eighteen a lot of sugar and lace

Almost eighteen with an angel face

She says I'm her kind of guy and if I leave her she'll die uh uh

I'll flip upside down and all the way around

I'm acting like a clown because I think I've found

The cream of the crop I know I'll never stop

I'll go on lovin' my baby she's a grown up lady now

Full skirt don't flirt ballerina shoes

Pin slips two lips that never sing the blues

Almost eighteen a ribbon in her hair

Almost eighteen my baby's young and fair

0h oh I'll never let her go because oh I love her so oh oh

She's gonna have her birthday then we'll run away

We're gonna find a preacher let him be the teacher

Gonna honeymoon all through the month of June

Darlin' we'll have a time until we're ninety-nine yeah yeah

Wedding bells gonna ring we're gonna be together

I love her she loves me our love'll live forever

Almost eighteen she's a swingin' queen

Almost eighteen oh what a lovely dream

Until the end of time my baby's mine all mine uh uh

Almost eighteen almost eighteen almost eighteen
