People, don't you worry, I know what I'm doin'

I know what love's all about

Ah this little girl won't make a fool out of me

Because I'm gonna straighten her out



(Ba ba ba oh oh oh oh sha la la la

Oh oh oh oh sha la la la

Oh oh oh oh sha la la la wo wo wo wo wo)

(backing heard a lot throughout song)



Ah this little girl is just about as mean as they come, she is now

She don't even act nice once in a while like some, oh yeah wo wo

Trouble is her middle name

But I'm glad that's the way she came

I can be the one to tame this little girl



Ah this little girl won't like me very much at first, she won't now

& after a while she's gonna think that I'm the worst, oh yeah

But I won't treat her with kid gloves

& I won't shower her with lots of love

But I'll make an angel of this little girl



Oh this little girl tries to make every man a slave, oh yeah

But this little man is gonna take her by the hand

& I'm gonna show her the way to behave



Ah this little girl is kinda used to gettin' her way, but no more now

There's gonna be some changes made startin' today, wo I said

Now everyone will be surprised

When I cut her down to size

& no one's gonna recognize my little girl, tell you again now



This little girl, I'm a man now

This little girl, I'll tell you again now

...& fade
