She left her neighborhood In which everyone was filthy rich She left her parent's home And strained with a vagabond Who made piles of love she never heard And she believed his every word She left no forwarding address Just took her youth and happiness As with the boy she vanished in The secret sweetness of their sin Oh, young girl Oh, young girl of sixteen Child of spring-time Still green Lying there by the road He told her, "love demanded space" So they roamed from place to place Although she realized she'd sinned She grew caution to the wind As she followed him around While he slowly dragged her down So overpowering was her love The it had made a captive of The young girl's heart and soul and mind In other words: love drove her blind Oh, young girl Oh, young girl of sixteen Child of spring-time Still green Laying there by the road Too much emotion for a girl She let her heart become her world What world that God has never rocked For a sunder we are taught Had she been wise and she'd have known She could feed him love alone She should of known the day would come When he would quit her just for crumbs He needed fresh young meat to love And left her heart and mind to starve Oh, young girl Oh, young girl of sixteen Child of spring-time Still green Lying there by the road
