I HAVE TO GROW UP by russ mckay

I guess I have to grow up
If I want to or not
I can’t stay a kid
Keep the life that I’ve got
But I am so happy
That I am still young
I don’t want to get older
And climb the next rung
I see Mom and Dad
They work hard all the time
‘Cause if they didn’t
We’d not have a dime
I love going to school
Well, mostly I do
My friends are all there
I love learning too
But when I am much older
I’ll have my own life
And we’ll have to make money
Both me and my wife
And I’ll have to buy
All kinds of toys
For my many children
Three girls and three boys
And I’ll have a big house
And a big mortgage to pay
But this is depressing
I’m going out to play!
