Almost Grown (Walled Lake Casino, Detroit, October 26, 1963, first set) Songtext
von Chuck Berry

You know I′m almost grown

Yeah, and I'm doing all right in school
They ain′t said I broke no rule
I ain't never been in Dutch
I don't browse around too much

Don′t bother me, leave me alone
Anyway, I′m almost grown

I don't run around with no mob
Got myself a little job
I′m going to buy me a little car
Drive my girl in the park


Don't bother us, leave us alone
Anyway, we′re almost grown

Got my eye on a little girl
Oh, she's really out of this world
Now I take her to a dance
We started talkin′ about romance

Don't bother us, leave us alone
Anyway, we're almost grown

You know I′m still livin′ in town
But I done married and settled down
Now I really have a ball
So I don't browse around at all

Don′t bother us, leave us alone
Anyway, we're almost grown
