Lynn Anderson "I Wish I Was a Little Boy Again" |
(Glenn Sutton - Darrell Edwards) Just a few short years ago I'd played a lot with Bill and Joe They seemed to think that I was quite a guy I could climb the highest tree and they would always follow me We had friendship I thought would never die. But soon I've change from tomboy girl and grew into a woman's world And moved away leaving my old friends Now I'm miles and years away but I still dream of childhood days And I wish I was a little boy again. But girls grow into women and boys grow into men And the world of make believe, oh, too soon must end And I blame that awful change for the shape my life is in Oh, how I wish I was a little boy again. I married someone they don't know a social lead they're far below The kind of life that I now have to live The man I married is cold to me but though he's wealthy just can't see That love cannot be bought it has to give. I wish I'd chosen one of them instead of being here with him If I could leave right now I think I'd go I'd trade this mansion I hate so for a small tree house with Bill or Joe I wish I was a little boy again. But girls grow into women and boys grow into men And the world of make believe, oh, too soon must end And I blame that awful change for the shape my life is in Oh, how I wish I was a little boy again. Oh, how I wish I was a little boy again... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
