I Don't Wanna Play House

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
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
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"
