I Don't Wanna Play House

Today I sat alone at my window And I watched our little boy outside at play With the little girl 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 came my eyes would lame 'Cause I heard him name the game and I hung my head in shame When I heard our little boy say to her 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 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
