(You're not a kid anymore)

 (You're not a kid anymore)



 When people ask of me,

 What would you like to be

 Now that your not a kid anymore.

 (You're not a kid anymore)



 I know just what to say,

 I answer right away,

 There's just one thing I've been wishing for.



 I want to be Bobby's girl

 I want to be Bobby's girl,

 That's the most important thing to me.



 And if I was Bobby's girl,

 If I was Bobby's girl,

 What a faithful thankful girl I'd be.



 Each night I sit at home,

 Hoping that he will phone,

 But I know Bobby has someone else



 Still in my heart I pray

 There soon will come the day

 That I will have him all to myself.



 I want to be Bobby's girl

 I want to be Bobby's girl,

 That's the most important thing to me.



 And if I was Bobby's girl,

 If I was Bobby's girl,

 What a faithful thankful girl I'd be.

 What a faithful thankful girl I'd be.
