You’re A Big Girl Now

When I take you to the movie show

Why does your little brother have to go?

I know we're old enough to be alone

So we don't have to have a chaperone

To tell your mom we're going steady

(And you're a big girl now)

But when I walk you through the park at night

We have to stroll where the lights are bright

And if we stop to steal a kiss or two

I hear your brother holler, "I see you!"

To tell your mom we're going steady

(And you're a big girl now)

They call it teenage love, teenage love

That's what they say, and it's a teenage bliss

We'll soon forget and we'll pass away

Tell your mom we're coming 'round tonight

With an engagement ring to make it right

(So) have your brother and his sister there

And tell the other guys they better beware

(And) they'll know we're going steady

(And that you're my girl now)

They call it teenage love, teenage love

That's what they say, and it's a teenage bliss

We'll soon forget and we'll pass away

Tell your mom we're coming 'round tonight

With an engagement ring to make it right

Have your brother and your sister there

And tell the other guys they better beware

(And they'll know we're going steady)

(And that you're my girl now)
