Looking 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 hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine Greeted at the back door With boy I thought I told you not to go outside
Tryin' your best to bring the Water to your eyes Thinkin' it might stop her From woopin' 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 love them so, I love them so
My brother says, he's tellin' 'Bout you playin' doctor with that girl Just don't tell I'll give you Anything you want in this wide world
But mama gives you money For Sunday school You trade for candy After church is through
Smokin' cigarettes and writing Something nasty on the wall So teacher sends you To the principals office down the wall
You grow up and learn That kinda thing ain't right But while you were doin' it 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?
I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ever have to go? I love them so
