Bob B. Soxx & The Blue Jeans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
I can't see you no more
'Cause we don't know
What love really means
She says we can't get married
For three years or more
'Cause we're only in our teens
Oh, no, we're not too young
Young to get married
Not too young
Young to get married
What kind of difference
Can a few years make
I gotta have you now
Or my heart will break
Not too young, young to get married
Not too young, young to get married
I couldn't love you more
Than I could today
I remember when I brought you home
I remember what my mama said
When I told her that I loved you so
She told me I was out of my head
Oh, no, we're not too young
Young to get married
Not too young
Young to get married
What kind of difference
Can a few years make
I gotta have you now
Or my heart will break
Not too young, young to get married
Not too young, young to get married
I couldn't love you more
Than I could today
I'll love you 'til the day I die
Wanna spend every day with you
Nobody knows that they make me cry
When they carry on like they do
Oh, no, we're not too young
Young to get married
Not too young
Young to get married
What kind of difference
Can a few years make
I gotta have you now
Or my heart will break
Not too young, young to get married
Not too young, young to get married
I couldn't love you more
Than I could today
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
Not too young, young to be married
The lyrics of the song "Not Too Young To Get Married" by Bob B. Soxx and the Bluejeans depict a teenage couple who want to get married despite the objections of the girl's mother. The protagonist's mother believes that her daughter is not old enough to understand the true meaning of love and does not approve of the relationship. However, the couple argues that they are not too young to get married.
The lyrics suggest that the couple is deeply in love and cannot bear the thought of being away from each other. They feel that waiting for three years or more is too long and will only result in their hearts breaking. The protagonist remembers the moment when he first brought his girlfriend home and his mother scolded him for falling in love at such a young age.
The song captures the passion and determination of young love and the desire to overcome obstacles that stand in the way of a couple's happiness. The repetition of the phrase "not too young to get married" serves as a reminder that age should not be a barrier to love and that young people are capable of making mature decisions about their lives.
Overall, "Not Too Young To Get Married" celebrates the power of young love and the desire of teenagers to create a future together, despite the objections of others.

My mama said
My mother told me
I can't see you no more
I am not allowed to see you anymore
'Cause we don't know
Because we do not have a complete understanding
What love really means
Of what love truly represents
She says we can't get married
She claims that we cannot wed
For three years or more
Until three years or more have elapsed
'Cause we're only in our teens
Because we are only in our teenage years
Oh, no, we're not too young
Oh, no! We are not immature in age
Young to get married
We are ready to be wed
Not too young
We are capable
What kind of difference
What dissimilarity
Can a few years make
A sparse amount of years could not make much of a variance
I gotta have you now
I have to have you currently
Or my heart will break
Otherwise, it will feel like my heart is shattering
I couldn't love you more
I could not have more affection for you
Than I could today
Than I do currently
I remember when I brought you home
I remain mindful of when I brought you to my dwelling
I remember what my mama said
I remember the directives my mother bestowed upon me
When I told her that I loved you so
When I revealed my depth of affection for you
She told me I was out of my head
She claimed I was ridiculous to think such a thing
I'll love you 'til the day I die
My love for you will not change until the end of my life
Wanna spend every day with you
I desire to spend each day with you
Nobody knows that they make me cry
No one understands that they cause me to weep
When they carry on like they do
When they act in such an ignorant manner
Not too young, young to be married
We are the right age to be wed
Not too young, young to be married
We are not too juvenile to be pronounced as married
Not too young, young to be married
We are capable of being husband and wife
Not too young, young to be married
We are not too young to perform the marital duties
Not too young, young to be married
Our age is not a barrier to our union
Not too young, young to be married
We are able to take the sacrament of matrimony
Not too young, young to be married
We are not too immature to be in a matrimonial bond
Not too young, young to be married
We are suitable for a lasting marital relationship
Not too young, young to be married
No one can tell us what age to be in love and marry
Not too young, young to be married
We are old enough to consent to marriage

Despite Sheen's status as group leader, by the time the trio entered the recording studio, Spector was often using Darlene Love as the group's primary vocalist. Read Full BioBob B. Soxx & the Blue Jeans was an early 1960s vocal group produced by Phil Spector, and was initially conceived as a vehicle for the lead vocals of Bobby Sheen, who took the stage name Bob B. Soxx. "The Blue Jeans" were backing vocalists, Darlene Love and Fanita James, both of whom were also members of girl group The Blossoms.
Despite Sheen's status as group leader, by the time the trio entered the recording studio, Spector was often using Darlene Love as the group's primary vocalist. Sheen sang lead on the group's first hit: 1962's "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" (originally from the 1946 Disney movie Song of the South). Love, meanwhile, handled the lead vocals on Bob B. Soxx and the Blue Jeans' two follow-up singles: 1963's "Why Do Lovers Break Each Other's Hearts?" and "Not Too Young to Get Married".
Sheen and Love share vocal duties on the only album the group ever recorded (1963's Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah).
Sheen can be heard as lead vocalist on the group's final recordings, two cuts on the classic Spector-produced LP "A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Spector" (1963), on which Love also appears as a solo artist. On the cover of this album, a group portrait shows Sheen with two "Blue Jeans" vocalists who have been tentatively identified as James and yet another Blossoms member, Gloria Jones.
After 1963 the group was dropped by Philles Records and effectively ceased to exist. Sheen went back to using his real name, cut some tracks for Capitol Records in the mid 1960s, and later joined a late-running touring version of The Coasters. Love, meanwhile, recorded a few solo hits, but, more memorably was the lead vocalist on at least two hit records by The Crystals.
