Well, I'm too old for girls, and I'm too young for women.

I've looked all around and my hopes are a dimmin'.

Got a hot rod Chevy with a twin carburetor.

And I know a gal that's a real sharp tomater.

And she's got a Daddy with a Caddy that'll date her.
C              C7
You see what I mean?

And, Lordy, I'm turning green..

The high school kids at the show with their babies.

They call me Mr. In-Between.

       C
Mr. In-Between.
