Sixteen Going on Seventeen

Sixteen Going on Seventeen - Mark Wynter/Bryan Johnson

You are sixteen going on seventeen

Baby it's time to think

Better beware be canny and careful

Baby you're on the brink

You are sixteen going on seventeen

Fellows will fall in line

Eager young lads and rogues and cads

Will offer you food and wine

Totally unprepared are you

To face a world of men

Timid and shy and scared are you

Of things beyond your ken

You need someone older an wiser

Telling you what to do

I am seventeen going on eighteen

I'll take care of you

Totally unprepared am I

To face a world of men

Timid and shy and scared am I

Of things beyond my ken

You need someone older and wiser

Telling me what to do

You are seventeen going on eighteen

I'll depend on you
