Intro verse 1 When I was just a little boy like you I wanted to do things the big boys do Wherever they went you knew they wouldn't let me go And I got suspicious and I wanted to know I was bright in school but my future looked dim 'Cause the big boys wouldn't let me party with them Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why Yes, yes - I knew when and what Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts .... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes When I was little bitty boy Solo verse 2 All of the big girls with their to When I ask 'em what's happening, nobody knew But when I found out where, what, when, and why I didn't let a single week pass by Till the school dance when I first met you And I learned to party like the big boys do Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why Yes, yes - I knew when and what Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts .... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes When I was little bitty boy Solo verse 3 If I would have known what makes a world go 'round I would have known what goes up must come down If you love me like I love you, Mademoiselle you chimboy woo The girls want to stay and the boys want to play So let's a rock and roll till the break of day Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why Yes, yes - I knew when and what Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts .... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes When I was little bitty boy Outro
