Sneakin' out of the back door way to soon

Not a clue about love under the moon

But she's seen all of those movies

And she's talked to all her friends

And there ain't no way she can wait



She's too young and her heart's on fire

And the lights are bright tonight

She's made up her mind that she's gonna find

Someone to hold her tight

She doesn't know how the game really goes

How her world can come apart

She's too young and her heart's on fire

She's a dead ringer for a broken heart



She's been hidin' that red dress far too long

Got her hair done and mama's makeup on

And she's practiced in the mirror

What she's seen in magazines

And she knows how that will drive them crazy



She's too young and her heart's on fire

And the lights are bright tonight

She's made up her mind that she's gonna find

Someone to hold her tight

She doesn't know how the game really goes

How her world can come apart

She's too young and her heart's on fire

She's a dead ringer for a broken heart



Simple curiosity can

Sometimes get you burned

What she thinks she knows by now

I guess she's gonna learn



She's too young and her heart's on fire

And the lights are bright tonight

She's made up her mind that she's gonna find

Someone to hold her tight

She doesn't know how the game really goes

How her world can come apart

She's too young and her heart's on fire

She's a dead ringer for a broken heart



Yeah, she's a dead ringer

She's a dead ringer for a broken heart

She's a dead ringer for a broken heart
