To Be A Child Again Lyrics - Johnny Tillotson

(To be a child again to be a child again) 

To be a child again and have no worries on my mind 

Cept what show am I gonna see at the Saturday matinee 

Will mom let me skip my napkins stay outside and play 

Why the roosters flock their wings and crow that way 

Had no problems then to be a child again 

To be a child again and have a child's faith in things 

Why the all the bad guys I knew were the outlaws on the screen 

You could win me over with a dish of ice creme 

Any man in iniform to me would like a king 

Men were like giants then to be a child again 

Well I'm a man now and the world weights heavy on my shoulders 

And my problems get bigger every day as I grow older

To be a child again and have no worries on my mind 

When I'd go fishin' I put on my old torn shirt 

My little dog would lick my face whenever I got hurt 

And if I was good I'd get an extra helping of dessert 

But that was way back then to be a child again 

To be a child again to be a child again
