Hanson Too Young to Kill song lyrics

It was only a case of passion spurned

We were only sixteen when the crime occurred

We fled the scene in a stolen truck

And we got away, beginner's luck

We hit the road as the sun came up

Seven hundred miles by the time we stopped

After that night it was all downhill

I was too young to kill

Her father said our love would never last

And what you're feeling now soon will pass

And Jenny's got a plan to finish school

So you better give it up now, you little fool

Well he timed his fist and my face he struck

Jenny yelled "No!" as I tried to get up

I pulled my gun and his face went pale

Son, you're too young to kill

So we got away Scott-free

So we thought

And outside Santa Fe is where we got caught

And as Jenny stepped in front of me

Well a shot rang out

She fell to her knees

Got my diploma at the county jail

Only eighteen but I've written my will

Headline read in the Daily Mail, he's too young to kill

He's too young to kill
