I Wish I Was a Little Boy Again Lyrics


    Just a few short years ago
    I 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

    Then I changed 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 girl again

    CHORUS
    Cause girls grow into women
    And boys grow into men
    And the world of make believe
    All too soon must end
    And I blame that awful change
    For the shape my life is in
    How I wish I was a little girl again

    I married someone they don’t know
    And socially they’re far below
    The kind of life that I now live with him
    The man I married is cold to me
    For all his wealth he just can’t see
    That love cannot be bought you have to give

    I wish I’d married 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 treehouse with Bill or Joe
    I wish I was a little girl again

    Chorus
