Lookin back on when I
was a little nappy headed boy
yes this more
yes this more
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 that they would bring
Sneakin out the back door to
hang out with those
hoodlum friends of mine
Greeted at the back door
with I thought I told you
not to go outside
Tryin the best to bring that
water to your eye
Thinkin it might stop her
from whuppin your behind
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 loved so
Brother says hes tellin
bout you playin doctor
with that girl
Just don't tell Ill give you
anything you want in this
whole wide world
Mama gives you money
for sunday school
You trade yours for candy
after chuch is through
Smokin cigarettes and
writin somethin nasty on the wall
Teacher sends you to the
principle office down the hall
You grow up and learn that
kind of thing aint right
But while you were doin it
it sure felt outta sight
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
