(traditional)

When a girl reach the age of 18,
She begins to think she's grown.
That's the kind of little girl
You can never find at home.

  Come and see me early in the morning,
  Just about the break of day.
  Do you want to see me hug my pillow
  Where my baby used to lay?

One drink of wine,
Two drinks of gin.
Pretty young girl put me
In the shape I'm in.

  Chorus

Pass by the juke joint,
Peek through the door.
She's doing the boogie-woogie
In the middle of the floor.
