I Don't Wanna Play House Lyrics - Skeeter Davis

Today I sat alone at my 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 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...
