Young Girls

Standing on the corner of Ward Avenue
With a couple of friends is where I see you
So invincible, so calm
Picking at something you found on your arm

Cause young girls can do anything, and still look good
Get away with anything, and still look good
Young girls yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Can do anything,
Can do anything

I think I’m gonna stop and tell you “whoaw!”
You’ll say “Tell me something I don’t already know”
And I’ll say “Yeah, sure, where would I begin”
And you’ll open the passenger door, and get in

And we’ll drive up north, all day and all night
Watch the moon rise over the Pacific on our right
You’ll make me laugh aloud, and I’ll do the same
And I’ll fall in love before I know your name

And when we run out of money, I’ll ring a friend of mine
From another place and another time
A plant operator in the coal fields out west
He’ll say “I’ve got a caravan out the back, be my guest”

And I’ll drive trucks in a coal mine all day
You’ll get a job waitressing in a truck-stop café
And we’ll live on whiskey and midnight meals
Of all the steak and cigarettes that you can steal

Cause young girls can do anything, and still look good
Get away with anything, and still look good
Young girls yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Can do anything,
Can do anything

And inside that caravan as the night winds blow
You’ll tell me some of the things that only young girls know
And when we’ve saved our money, you’ll kiss my friend
And I’ll forgive you both, and we’ll ride again

We’ll ride the highway, you and me
That runs out over any midnight sea
Straight out to that darker little patch of sky
Underneath the rising moon, and we’ll never die

Cause young girls can do anything, and still look good
Get away with anything, and still look good
Young girls yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Can do anything,
Can do anything
