[Verse 1]
Late at night
Tryin' to play my hand
Through my window
Out stepped a man
I didn't know no better
In my girlish days
My mama cried, "Papa did to you"
"Oh daughter, my word is shame on you"
I didn't know no better
In my girlish days
[Verse 2]
I flagged a train
Didn't have a dime
Trying to run away from that home of mine
But I didn't know no better
Oh, in my girlish days
I hit the highway, caught me a truck
Nineteen and seventeen
With the window was cut [?]
But I didn't know no better
In my girlish days
Didn't know no better
Well, in my girlish days
[Verse 3]
All my friends are not surprised
But I had to travel before I got wise
Now I found out better
And I still got my girlish ways
[Outro]
(Ooh, in my girlish days)
In my girlish days, oh yeah
(Ooh, in my girlish days)
