I Wish I Was a Little Boy Again — текст песни (Lynn Anderson)

(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...
