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 too him
(chours)
i don't wanna play house
i know it can't be fun
i've watched mommy and daddy and if thats the way it's done
i don't wanna play house it makes my mommy cry
cause when she played house my daddy said good-bye

I Don't Wanna Play House Lyrics
