David Bowie – Almost Grown Lyrics

Rock

Now this next one is a sort of classic, as it were, golden oldie
It's Chuck Berry's "Almost Grown" and added to the group on this
One, Jeffrey Alexander, who lives at the end of the road that
David lives on and who likes to sing so David asked him to come
Along and sing, which is pretty good. I like that community kind
Of thing. And also George Underwood and more about George Underwood
Later on, I can't even say it. So, Chuck Berry's "Almost Grown"

(Whoa, whoa) Anyway, I'm almost grown
(Whoa, whoa) Doing alright in school
(Whoa, whoa) I don't ever break no rules
(Whoa, whoa) I ain't never been in Dutch
(Whoa, whoa) And I don't browse around too much
(Whoa, whoa) Don't bother us, leave us alone
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Anyway, we're almost grown

(Whoa, whoa) Don't hang around with no mob
(Whoa, whoa) Got myself a little job
(Whoa, whoa) Gonna buy a little car
(Whoa, whoa) Drive my girlfriend to the park
(Whoa, whoa) Don't bother us, leave us alone
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Anyway, we're almost grown

Clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

(Whoa, whoa) Got my eye on a little girl
(Whoa, whoa) Oh man, she's out of this world
(Whoa, whoa) I'm gonna take her to a dance
(Whoa, whoa) Sit and talk about romance
(Whoa, whoa) Don't bother us, leave us alone
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Anyway, we're almost grown, ah

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)

Ah, that's very good. Hoo-hoo, haha. Ah, it's good
To hear that again. Some of the fine music from
Chuck Berry and that's "Almost Grown" of course
