janis ian - go 'way little girl lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
don’t go out in the street little girl
and don’t go out into town
now you don’t know who you’ll meet little girl
there are bad men around
your mother, she’s in love with you
and she tells you “you oughtn’t to go with guys”
so go to bed at ten, let your mama tuck you in
and turn on your mickey mouse night-light
then you make it with your mind

[chorus]
don’t go out into town, little girl
stay safe in your house, little girl
your mother’s wares, and the enquirer’s tales
keep you hiding, denying

[verse 2]
don’t go into the park, little girl
you know those men are all the same
stay inside alone after dark, little girl
boy wants just one thing
don’t talk about s-x, you might get hexed
god’ll punish you for your dirty mind
now there’s no escaping, you’d enjoy a raping
just to find out the facts of life
mama says “maintain your pride”

[chorus]
don’t go out into town, little girl
stay safe in the house, little girl
your mother’s wares, and the d-mn news tales
keep you hiding, denying

[verse 3]
don’t go into your mind, little girl
y’know the windows, they’re only made of gl-ss
don’t let me catch you trying to pry, little girl
mirrors of illusion tumble fast
you’re too far gone for anyone
i’d like to help, but i can only sigh
you’d best maintain your mama’s pride
you lost yours the time
you obeyed when she said “don’t fraternize”
no place to hide

[chorus]
don’t go out into town, little girl
stay safe in the house, little girl
your mother’s a gun and you continue to run
keep you hiding, denying
