Modern Music - Sixteen Going on Seventeen

This song does not belong to me. It is a cover of the song “Sixteen Going on Seventeen” from the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music. It was produced by the audio production firm Modern Music for a 2009 State Farm commercial to promote their now defunct teen driving website. This song is freely available to download online at http://90210.mysfdomain.com/state_far... I have taken the liberty to upload it onto YouTube as there have been no videos that simply showcase the song in its entirety over the near decade this music has been available. For anyone who would like to just listen to the song with no distractions and without downloading any files, I felt it would be best to upload the music with only the attached album art as the background. I claim no ownership over anything in this video and will remove it if any official representatives of State Farm, Modern Music, or the Rodgers & Hammerstein estates request that I do so. Lyrics: You are sixteen going on seventeen Baby, it’s time to think Better beware Be canny and careful Baby, you’re on the brink You are sixteen going on seventeen Fellows will fall in line Eager young lads And rogues and cads Will offer you fruit and wine Totally unprepared are you To face a world of men Timid and shy and scared are you Of things beyond your ken You are sixteen going on seventeen Baby, it’s time to think Better beware Be canny and careful Baby, you’re on the brink You wait, little girl, On an empty stage For fate to turn the light on Your life, little girl, Is an empty page That men will want to write on You need someone Older and wiser Telling you what to do I am seventeen going on eighteen I’ll take care of you You are sixteen going on seventeen Baby, it’s time to think Better beware Be canny and careful Baby, you’re on the brink (You are sixteen going on seventeen) (Baby, it’s time to think) (You are sixteen going on seventeen)
