Lyrics

Thinkin' back on when I was a little nappy-headed boy 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 that back door Hangin' with those hoodlum friends of mine Mama at the back door "Boy, I thought I told you not to go outside You go try and bring some water to your eyes" Thinkin' that would stop her from whoopin' your behind And I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ever have to go? And I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ever have to go? 'Cause I love them so Brother says he's tellin' 'bout you playin' doctor with that girl "Boy, if you don't tell, I'll give You anything in this whole wide world" Mama gives you money for Sunday school You trade yours for candy after church is through Smokin' cigarettes now Writin' somethin' nasty on that wall Teacher sends you to the principal's office just down the hall You grow up and learn that kind of thing ain't right But while you were doin' it, it sure felt outta sight And I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ever have to go? And I wish those days could come back once more Why did those days ever have to go? 'Cause I love them so
