Girl reach the age of 18,
she begin to think she's grown
That's the kind of little girl you can't never,
find at home
Come see me Early in the mornin',
baby 'bout the break of day
Then you all saw me huggin' a pillow,
where my baby used to lay
One drink of wine, two drinks of gin,
took a little girl to put me in the shape I'm in
Come see me early in the mornin',
just about the break of day
Then ya' all saw me huggin' my pillow,
where my baby used to lay
Went to the juke joint,
look through the door
Found that little girl doin' the boogie-woogie,
in the middle of the floor
Come see me early in the mornin',
Baby 'bout the break of day
Then ya all saw me huggin' the pillow,
where my baby used to lay
Girl reach the age of 18,
she begin to think she's grown
That's the kind of little girl you can't never,
find at home
Come see me Early in the mornin',
baby 'bout the break of day
Then you all saw me huggin' a pillow,
where my baby used to lay
