Hold tight, good lover,

VERSE 3
When we finally got to my car
Said where'd ya live she say's not too far
When we cruised off into the night
She said there's just one thing that ain't quite right now
Said ya better keep to your side
I said now baby you must be blind
We better take this nice n slow now
FEMALE VOICE I'm not 16 I want you to know now
BACKUPS She's not 16 she wants you know now
FEMALE VOICE I'm not 16
BACKUPS She's not 16
LEAD Ya not 16 Woooww
