To Be a Child Again

(To be a child again to be a child again) To be a child again and have no worries on my mind Cept what show am I gonna see at the Saturday matinee Will mom let me skip my napkins stay outside and play Why the roosters flock their wings and crow that way Had no problems then to be a child again To be a child again and have a child's faith in things Why the all the bad guys I knew were the outlaws on the screen You could win me over with a dish of ice creme Any man in iniform to me would like a king Men were like giants then to be a child again Well I'm a man now and the world weights heavy on my shoulders And my problems get bigger every day as I grow older To be a child again and have no worries on my mind When I'd go fishin' I put on my old torn shirt My little dog would lick my face whenever I got hurt And if I was good I'd get an extra helping of dessert But that was way back then to be a child again To be a child again to be a child again
