Mrs. Smith's Sixth Grade Classroom
when i was small...

when i was small
i didn't like to wash up
and i played in the mud
and didn't wear no shoes
and got all dirty

and when i was small
i didn't like to dress up
or go to church
or go shopping

and when i was small
i liked to run thru the field
when it was just planted
and follow the rows
and jump in the soft warm dirt

and when i was small
i liked to climb trees
and jumb out
and play tarzan
and eat green apples

and when i was small
i liked to yell real loud
and whistle
and sing
and chew bubble gum

and now I'm all growed up
so i don't do those things no more
'cept when nobody's looking
