Fragile Child

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I knew a pretty little girl

With no love to give

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

So I followed her home

Just to see where she lives

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

I walked right up

And I knocked on her door

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

So I asked her for a date

Could I see you some more

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

'Cause she's a fragile child

Yeah! She's a fragile child

Oh! She's a fragile child

Better leave her alone.

I took her out on the town

Just to have a little fun

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

But it wasn't very long

I found that she's the same one

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

I thought I'd push my luck

And I held her hand

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

She told me ever so polite

Go and see her old man

I wouldn't do that,

I wouldn't do that.

'Cause she's a fragile child

Yeah! She's a fragile child

Oh! She's a fragile child

Better leave her alone.

(Break)

'Cause she's a fragile child

Yeah! She's a fragile child

Oh! She's a fragile child

Better leave her alone.
