She Was Too Young - The Cats

She just said goodbye to me with a smile upon her face

Moving out like that, didn’t leave a trace

She never even realized just what she meant to me

The only one I cared about was Sheila

She was too young, so very young

Just to make it on her own, live a life of pleasure

Somebody told me lately he’d seen her on a stage

Of some dirty striptease bar, all dressed in lace

She’d been drinking too much gin and fell down on the floor

They took her up and knocked her through that barroom door

She was too young, so very young

To resist the dangers of the city

She was too young, so very young

Such an innocent girl, isn’t it a pity

She was too young, so very young

To resist the dangers of the city

She was too young, so very young

Such an innocent girl, isn’t it a pity

Oh, my darling Sheila, you were too young

Just to make it on your own, live a life of pleasure

Just to make it on your own, live a life of pleasure

Live a life of pleasure
