Lyrics
I was a party doll, kiss and tell
Used to honky tonk, paint my nails
Giggle and flirt, wiggle in my miniskirt
Honey you were the one who treated me right
I was too young, couldn't see the light
Crazy and wild, you used to say, "Grow up child"
CHORUS
If it's pain that makes you grow
The baby, I should know
'Cause since you let me go
Honey I got those mean old growin' pains
Well I must be growin' 'cause I feel the pain
'But growin' alone is a cryin' shame
I wish you were here to see the change in me
Now I sit alone nights, thinking of you
Those neon lights only make me blue
The only light burnin' is the home fire burnin' for you
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
(Growin pains)
Have mercy can't you see
(Growin pains)
This hurt's got a hold on me
(Growin pains)
Come set my poor heart free
(Growin pains)
I gotta break loose from this full-grown misery
CHORUS
