Lyrics
Hey girl, you feeling real uptight
Addressing a girl who seems tense or anxious
No fun and games for you this Friday night
Implying that she's missing out on fun and games on Friday night
Your daddy says you might as well go to school
Her father advises her to go to school, emphasizing responsibility
He pays the bills so don't you be no fool
Highlighting the financial support from her father and advising against foolishness
'Cause you're a young girl
Affirming her young age
And you're really not on your own
Emphasizing that she's not fully independent
You're a young girl
Repeating the idea of her youth and vulnerability
And you shouldn't be allowed to roam
Suggesting restrictions on her freedom
Now, listen to me and hear what I've got to say
Encouraging her to listen to advice
Love will come your way one of these days
Predicting that love will come to her eventually
And in just a matter of time
Expressing the belief that positive changes will happen over time
Every little thing is gonna be just fine
Assuring that everything will be fine in the future
'Cause you're a young girl
Reiterating her youth and dependence
And you're really not on your own
Stressing her lack of independence
You're a young girl
Continuing to emphasize her vulnerability
And you shouldn't be allowed to roam
Advising against allowing her to roam freely
You're a young girl
Repeating the assertion of her youth
And you're really not on your own
Emphasizing her dependence on others
No, you're a young girl
Reiterating the idea that she shouldn't be alone
And you shouldn't be allowed to roam
Advising against free wandering
'Cause you're a young girl
Re-emphasizing her youth and lack of independence
And you're really not on your own
Stressing her need for support and guidance
You're a young girl
Repeating the warning against letting her roam freely
And you shouldn't be allowed to roam
Highlighting her vulnerability and need for protection
You're a young girl
Reiterating her youth and dependence
And you're really not on your own
Emphasizing the theme of her not being on her own
No, you're a young girl
Asserting her vulnerability and need for guidance
And you shouldn't be allowed to roam
Repeating the caution against allowing her to roam freely
