Today I sat alone at the window, And I watched our little girl outside and play With the little boy next door, like so many time before But somethin' didn't seem right today So I wen't outside, to see what they were doin' And then the teardorps 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 don't wanna play house, I know it can't be fun I've watched mommy and daddy, and if that's the way it's done I don't wanna play house, it makes my mommy cry 'Cause when she played house, my daddy said goodbye I don't wanna play house, I know it can't be fun I've watched mommy and daddy, and if that's the way it's done I don't wanna play house, it makes my mommy cry 'Cause when she played house, my daddy said goodbye
