Young Man Going Womanhood

[Johanna]

You’re a young man in a empty stage,

For fate to turn the light on.

Your life as a girl is an empty page,

That men will want to write on.

 

You’re young man going womanhood,

Life is just a start.

When you start a friendship, 

Someone will touch your heart.

 

But when it happened, and if it happened,

Life won’t be the same.

So it’s all up to you and if you do,

To make them call your name.

 

You’re young man going womanhood,

Man it is time to think.

Better beware, be more careful,

Man you’re on the brink.

 

You’re a young man going womanhood,

Fellows will fall in line..

Eager young lads and rogues and cads,

Will offer you food and wine.

 

Totally unprepared are you,

To face the world of men.

Timid and shy and scared are you,

Of things beyond your ken…

 

You need someone older and wiser,

Telling you what to do.

You’re a young man going womanhood,

Who will take care of you.

 

You’re a young man going womanhood,

Know that you’re naive.

Fellows you meet may tell you you’re sweet,

And willing you believe.

 

You’re a young man going womanhood,

Innocent as a rose.

Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies,

What do you know of those?

 

Totally unprepared are you,

To face the world of men.

Timid and shy and scared are you,

Of things beyond your ken…

 

You need someone older and wiser,

Telling you what to do.

You’re a young man going womanhood,

All depend on you..
