Tenderness on the Block

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 waitingWide eyes, she'll be street-wise

To the lies and the jive talk

But she'll find true love

And tenderness on the blockDaddy, 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, can't keep her young man waitingShe'll be okay, let her have her day

'Cause it's a long way, it's a long walk

But she'll find true love

And tenderness on the blockI know how much it hurts to see her go

She has a mind of her own, you know

She's all grown up, she has a young man waiting

She's all grown up, she has a young man waitingShe was wide-eyed, now she's street-wise

To the lies and the jive talk

But she'll find true love

And tenderness on the blockShe'll find true love

And tenderness on the block
