I Wish

Looking back on when I was a little nappy-headed Boy. Then my only worry was by Christmas, Would there be my toy? Even though we sometimes would not get a thing, We were happy with our children every spring. Sneaking out the back door to hang out with A little old friends of mine. Mine. Preaching at the back door with boys, Though dad told you not to go outside. Not to go outside. Trying your best to breathe while it poured out Through your eyes. Thinking it must have hurt from Brooklyn, New York. I wish those 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 love them so. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Brother says you're silly, but you play doctor with The girls. Oh. You tell your mom give anything you own in This whole wide world. Whole wide world. Mama gives you money for Sunday school. Sunday school. yours for candy after church. Smoking cigarettes and writing something nasty on The wall. You nasty boy. Teachers sound good to the principal of this damn Hall. And you were Up in London counting down the ride. Back while you were telling a stupid little song. I wish those days could come back once more. Why did those days ever have to go? Why did those 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? I wish those days could come back once more. Why did those ever have to go? 'Cause I love them so. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, yeah, Yeah, yeah.
