the sound of music

(Rolf): You are sixteen, going on seventeen, baby it's time to think.
Better beware, be canny and careful, baby you're on the brink.

You are sixteen, going on seventeen, fellows will fall in line...

Totally unprepared are you, to face a world of men.

Timid and shy and scared are you, of things beyond your kin.

You need someone older and wiser, telling you what to do.

I am seventeen, going on eighteen. I'll take care of you...


(Liesl): I am sixteen, going on seventeen. I know that I'm naive.

Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet, and willingly I believe.

I am sixteen, going on seventeen, innocent as a rose...

Totally unprepared am I, to face a world of men.

Timid and shy and scared am I, of things beyond my kin.

I need someone older and wiser telling me what to do.

You are seventeen, going on eighteen. I'll depend on you.
