Lookin back on when I
|
Was a little nappy-headed boy
|
Then my only worry
|
Was for Christmas what would be my toy
|
|
Even though we sometimes would not get a thing
|
We were happy with the joy the day would bring
|
|
Sneaking out the back door
|
To hangout with those hoodlum friends of mine, ooh yeah
|
Greeted at the back door
|
Boy, thought I told you not to go outside.
|
|
Trying the best to bring the water to your eyes
|
Thinking it might stop her from whoopin' your behind.
|
|
I wish these days could come back once more
|
Why did those days ever have to go
|
I wish those days could come back once more
|
Why did those days ever have to go
|
Cause I loved them so
|
|
Do-do do-do do do do do do do do do
|
Do-do do-do do do do do do do
|
Do do do do do do do do do do do do
|
Do-do do-do do do do do do do
|
|
Brother says he's tellin
|
About you playin doctor with that girl
|
Just don't tell, I'll give you
|
Anything you want in this whole wide world
|
|
Mama gives you money for Sunday school
|
You trade yours for candy after church is through
|
|
Smoking cigarettes and
|
Writing something nasty on the wall (you nasty boy)
|
Teacher sends you to the
|
Principal's office down the hall
|
|
You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't right
|
But while you were doin it, it sure felt outta sight
|
|
I wish these days could come back once more
|
Why did those days ever have to go
|
I wish those days could come back once more
|
Why did those days ever have to go
|
|
Do-do do-do do do do do do do do do
|
Do-do do-do do do do do do do
|
Do do do do do do do do do do do do
|
Do-do do-do do do do do do do
|
