Lyrics Tenderness On The Block - 2007 Remastered Version - Warren Zevon

Mama where′s your pretty little girl tonight?
Trying to run before she can walk, that's right.
She′s growing up, she has a young man waiting.
She's growing up, she has a young man waiting.
Wide eyes
She'll be street wise
To the lies
And the jive talk
And she′ll find true love
And Tenderness on the block.
Daddy don′t you ask her when she's comin′ in
And when she's home don′t ask her where she's been
She′s going out, she has a young man waiting
She's going out, can't keep her young man waiting.
She′ll be OK.
Let her have her day
′Cause its a long way
Its a long walk
But she'll find true love
And Tenderness on the block.
I know how much it hurts to see her go.
She has a mind of her own you know.
She′s all grown up.
She has a young man waiting.
She's all grown up.
She has a young man waiting.
She was wide eyed
Now she′s street wise
To the lies
And the jive talk.
But she'll find true love
And Tenderness on the block.
She′ll find true love
And Tenderness on the block.
Oh-ho-o-o Hey Hey Now
Oh-ho-o-o Hey Hey Now
Oh-ho-o-o Hey Hey Now
Oh-ho-o-o Hey Hey Now
