Tenderness on the Block (NIC) Warren Zevon

[Verse 1]
Mama, where's your pretty little girl tonight?
Trying to run before she can walk, that's right
She's growing up, she has a young man waiting
She's growing up, she has a young man waiting

[Chorus]
Now she's wide-eyed, she'll be street-wise
To the lies and the jive talk
But she'll find true love
And tenderness on the block

[Verse 2]
Daddy, don't you ask her when she's coming in
And when she's home, don't ask her where she's been
She's going out, she has a young man waiting
She's going out, and shе can't keep her young man waiting

[Chorus]
But she'll be okay, lеt her have her day
It's a long way, it's a long walk
But she'll find true love
And tenderness on the block
Wally
