Today I sat alone at the window
And I watched our little girl outside at play
With the little boy next door like so many times before
But something didnt seem quite right today
So I went outside to see what they were doing
And then the teardrops made my eyes grow dim
Cause I heard him name a game and I hung my head in shame
When I heard our little girl say to him.
I dont wanna play house I know it cant be fun
Ive watched mommy and daddy
And if thats the way its done
I dont wanna play house It makes my mommy cry
Cause when she played house
My daddy said good-bye.
