Playing House

I have a special friend

He lives across the street

sometimes he’ll call me up

when he wants to play with me

Aaaaaaaaah Ah Ah Play with me

Aaaaaaaaah Ah Ah Play with me

we play all kinds of games

we both play hide and seek

sometimes he’ll find me fast

sometimes it takes him weeks

a bit too old for games

too young to have a spouse

I like to try new things

I just like playing house

although it’s make believe

I know what love’s about

don’t need no diamond ring

I just like playing house

I’m not a little girl

He’s not a little boy

He comes into my world

And we share all our toys

Aaaaaaaaah Ah Ah All our toys

Aaaaaaaaah Ah Ah All our toys

he’ll look me in the eyes

and kiss me on the mouth

we all have separate lives

we’re only playing house

although it’s make believe

I know what love’s about

don’t need no diamond ring

I just like playing house

and it feels like he loves me

when he’s below or above me

and if he ever slips away

I know he’s thinking of me

and it feels like I love him

when I’m below or above him

And if he ever slips away

I’ll have sweet memories of him

don’t need no diamond ring

I just like playing house
