I Don't Wanna Play House Lyrics - Kitty Wells

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 grow 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"
