I am sixteen, going on seventeen,
I know that I'm naive.
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly, I believe!
I am sixteen, going on seventeen,
Innocent as a rose.
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies,
What do I know of those?
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men.
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my kin!
I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are seventeen, going on eighteen,
I'll depend on you.
