I suppose this one is for my daughter, Judy...

lyrics

When you are a child
Your Daddy might say no
Well that’s the red light talkin’
He doesn’t want you to go

Then you’re a little big girl
And there’s a boy and his nice hands
He wants to keep moving
He’s the green light man

You’re climbing up a stairway
Not sure what’s up top
You got your hand on a doorknob
That you don't really wanna open up

Comin’ in from a distance
Could go either way
You’re squinting past the wipers
Speeding down the rain
Someone whispers something
Right next to your ear
It’s the yellow light talkin’
And you’re trying not to hear,
you don’t wanna hear…

But before you start to stopping
Or even slowing down
Baby take a look at the rainbow
There’s a lot of other colors around

When you are a child
Your Daddy might say no
Well that’s the red light talkin’
He doesn’t want you to go
