Well, let me tell you I have seen
A monster age of seventeen
Who'll let you in to kick you out
And knows what love is all about
Well, hey now, girl
I see you walking by
And long ago you used to stop and talk
Now you just wink your eye
And I'm surprised
You look all grown up
A champagne glass next to a paper cup
I stopped here just to say
Hey now, girl
Her tongue is black, haven't you heard?
Her mutter those three dirty words
For all the foolish boys to hear
Like a siren bringing ships so near
Well, hey now, girl
I see you walking by and I remember
How you used to smile
How hard you used to try
It's in your eyes and I'm in a trance
A winter chill next to a spring romance
I stopped here just to say
Hey now, girl, well, hey now, girl
Well, hey now, girl
Well, hey now, girl
Who let you out into this world?
Hey now, girl
