Bobby Sox to Stockings

When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings

And she starts trading her baby toys for boys

When that once-shy little sleepyhead

Learns about love and its lilt

You can bet that the change

Is more than from cotton to silk

If a miss wants to be kissed instead of cuddled

And to this you are in doubt as what to say

When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings

Then she's old enough to give her heart away

And to this you are in doubt as what to say

When a girl changes from bobby sox to stockings

Then she's old enough to give her heart away

Yes, she's old enough to give her heart away
