I Don't Want to Play House

Lyrics

Today, I 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
 So I went outside to see what they were doing
 And then the teardrops made my eyes go dim,
 'Cause I heard him name a game, and I hung my head in shame
 When I heard our little girl say to him:
 CHORUS:
 I don't want to 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 want to play house
 It makes my Mommy cry
 'Cause when she played house
 My Daddy said "Goodbye"
 CHORUS AGAIN
