I Don't Wanna Play House
Lyrics
Today I've 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 didn't seem quite right today

Today I've 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

And then the teardrops made my eyes go dim
But something didn't seem quite right today
'Cause I heard him name a game and I hung my head in shame
'Cause when she played house, my daddy said, "Goodbye"
And I watched our little girl outside at play
So I went outside to see what they were doing
Today I've sat alone at the window
'Cause when she played house, my daddy said, "Goodbye"
I don't wanna play house, it makes my mommy cry
I've watched mommy and daddy and if that's the way it's done

I've watched mommy and daddy and if that's the way it's done
I don't wanna play house, I know it can't be fun
When I heard our little girl say to him
Songwriters: Billy Sherrill, Glenn Sutton
I don't wanna play house, I know it can't be fun
With the little boy next door, like so many times before
I don't wanna play house, it makes my mommy cry
