Lyrics

Sweet Young Thing Ain't Sweet No More

[Verse 1]

Sweet young thing ain't sweet no more

Sweet young thing ain't sweet no more

Mama found her draped over the toilet bowl

Oh!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Mama said, "Child, what you done?"

Mama said, "Child, what you done?"

Wake up and greet the midday sun

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

Sweet young thing ain't sweet no more

Sweet young thing ain't sweet no more

Mama's little pills spilled all over the floor

Oh!

[Guitar Solo]

[Interlude]

Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

[Chorus]

Mama can't handle her on her own

Mama can't handle her on her own

She says, "You just wait till your father gets home,"
