She's a cute lil' girl She got such a wonderful mug When she start to talkin' Her voice bust a stone jug I'm scared o' that child I'm scared o' that child I'm scared o' that child Because i'm too young to die! Oh, yeah! We had a date and i couldn't make it That's what made 'er mad Now i'm lookin' at two brown eyes They turned greenish-gray I'm scared o' that child I'm scared o' that child I'm scared o' that child Because i'm too young to die! I called my baby And i told 'er i would be late 'time my baby opened the door I looked in the barrel of a .38 I'm scared o' that child I'm scared o' that child I'm scared o' that child 'cause i'm too young to die!
