Growin' Up

(album: Spotlight On Nilsson - 1966)

Little girls have pretty curls and dollies they can play with.
Little boys have soldier toys and puppy dogs to play with.
When the little boy grows up, he'll need a love to fill his cup.
Offered by the girl to the little boy.

Little girls in pinafores all dressed up for Sunday.
Little boys in short blue pants all dressed up for Sunday.
When the growing pains occur, he'll offer all his love to her.
Offered by the boy to the little girl.

Little girls wear Mommy's shoes and Mommy's grown-up necklace.
Little boys make lots of noise, for sometimes they get restless.
When the boy becomes a man, he'll offer her a wedding band.
Offered by the boy to the little girl.
Offered by the boy to the little girl.
