I Wish I Was a Little Boy Again

I Wish I Was a Little Boy Again - Lynn Anderson

Written by：Glenn Sutton/D.J. Edwards

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 boy again

But grow girls with 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 boy again

I married someone they don't know

And socially they're far below

The kind of life that I now

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

Id trade this mansion I hate so

For a small treehouse with Bill or Joe

I wish I was a little boy again

But grow girls with 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 boy again

Oh how I wish I was a little boy again
