Standard (EADGBE)

Today I sat alone by the window

And I watched our little girl outside at play

with the little boy next door.

Like so many times before

But somethin' didn't seem quite right today

So I went outside to see what they were doin'

And then the tear drops made my eyes grow dim.

'Cause I heard him name the game

And I hung my head in shame

When I heard our little girl say to him

Chorus

I don't wanna play house,

I know it can't be fun;

I 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

[Repeat Chorus once]

The last "Goodbye"

Goodbye
