Shawn Colvin - Tenderness on The Block Lyrics

W. zevon - j. browne Mamma where’s your pretty little girl tonight She’s tryin’ to run before she can walk That’s right She’s growing up She’s got a young man waiting She’s growing up She’s got a young man waiting She’s wide-eyed She’ll be streetwise To the lies And the jive talk But she’ll find true love And tenderness on the block Now daddy don’t you ask her when She’s comin’ home When she’s back don’t ask her where She’s been She’s going out She’s got a young man waiting She’s going out She’s got a young man waiting She’ll be okay Let her have her way It’s a long way It’s a long walk But she’ll find true love And tenderness on the block She’s gonna find true love She’s gonna find true love She’s gonna find true love And tenderness on the block Now I know how much it hurts to see her go But she’s got a mind of her own you know She’s all grown-up She’s got a young man waiting She’s all grown-up She’s got a young man waiting She was wide-eyed Now she’s streetwise To the lies And the jive talk But she’ll find true love And tenderness on the block She’s gonna find true love Shawn Colvin Lyrics Tenderness on The Block Lyrics
