Standard (EADGBE)

 Today I sat alone by the window

 And I watched our little girl outside at play

 with the little boy next door.

 Like so many times before

 But somethin' didn't seem quite right today

 So I went outside to see what they were doin'

 And then the tear drops made my eyes grow dim.

 'Cause I heard him name the game

 And I hung my head in shame

 When I heard our little girl say to him

Chorus

 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

[Repeat Chorus once]

The last "Goodbye"

Goodbye
