C
When I was just a little boy like you
C
I wanted to do things the big boys do
F
Wherever they went you knew they wouldn't let me go
C
And I got suspicious and I wanted to know
G
I was bright in school but my future looked dim
C
'Cause the big boys wouldn't let me party with them
C
Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why
F
Yes, yes - I knew when and what
C
Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts
G

.... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes

When I was little bitty boy
