Big Boys

When I was just a little boy like you

I wanted to do things the big boys do

Wherever they went you knew they wouldn't let me go

And I got suspicious and I wanted to know

I was bright in school but my future looked dim

'Cause the big boys wouldn't let me party with them

Yes, yes

I didn't cry

Yes, yes

And you know why

Yes, yes

I knew when and what

Yes, yes

No ifs, ands, or buts

I was looking for joy

Yes, yes, yes, yes

When I was little bitty boy

All of the big girls with their to

And I asked them what's happening, nobody knew

But when I found out where, what, when, and why

I didn't let a single week pass by

Till the school dance when I first met you

And I learned to party like the big boys do

Yes, yes

I didn't cry

Yes, yes

And you know why

Yes, yes

I knew when and what

Yes, yes

No ifs, ands, or buts

I was looking for joy

Yes, yes, yes, yes

When I was little bitty boy

If I would have known what makes a world go 'round

I would have known what goes up must come down

If you love me like I love you

Mademoiselle, je vous aime, voulez-vous?

The girls want to stay and the boys want to play

So let's a-rock and roll till the break of day

Yes, yes

I didn't cry

Yes, yes

And you know why

Yes, yes

I knew when and what

Yes, yes

No ifs, ands, or buts

I was looking for joy

Yes, yes, yes, yes

When I was little bitty boy
