Little Girl Don't Grow Up Too Fast lyrics

Little princess, summer flowers in her hair

Playing Ring Around The Rosie in a picture there

Tiptoeing 'round the house in her mama's shoes

Coloring her lips red in her bedroom

Prom queen wants to be like the magazines

Thinks she found her king, barely seventeen

Too much that the world's wanting you to do

When you're still just a child in your mama's shoes

Little girl, little girl, don't grow up too fast

'Fore you know it, you'll be wishing you could just go back

Don't you know there'll be plenty of time for that

Somewhere down the road?

Yeah, it's all gonna fly in the blink of an eye

You can't slow down this thing called life

So take your time and let it last

Little girl, don't grow up too fast

Sometimes I feel like I'm hanging on by a thread

Climbing ladders trying to get to the next step

Working hard, always wanting something more

Missing how things were simple like it was before

Cause it's hard to know just what to do

When I still feel like a child in my mama's shoes

Little girl, little girl, don't grow up too fast

'Fore you know it, you'll be wishing you could just go back

Don't you know there'll be plenty of time for that

Somewhere down the road?

Yeah, it's all gonna fly in the blink of an eye

You can't slow down this thing called life

So take your time and let it last

Little girl, don't grow up too fast

Sometimes I wish I could just go back and say

"Take your time and let it last, little girl"

Yeah, it's all gonna fly in the blink of an eye

You can't slow down this thing called life

So take your time and let it last

Little girl, don't grow up too fast

Little girl, don't grow up too fast
