Lolita - Lyrics by Suzanne Vega


Lyrics
Lolita

Almost grown

Lolita

Go on home


Hey girl

Don't be a dog all your life

Don't beg for
Some little crumb of affection


Don't try

To be somebody's wife

So young

You need a word of protection


Lolita

Almost grown

Lolita
Go on home


Hey girl
I've been where you are standing

Leaning in the doorway

In your mother's black dress


So hungry

For the one understanding

Looking for a token of
Blood or tenderness


Lolita

Almost grown

Lolita

Go on home


Lolita...
