Sometimes, yes, sometimes, I wish I were a boy.
#1.
I've been standing by the jukebox hoping he'd
ask me to dance.
How I wish I could run to him and hug him but a
girl mustn't make an advance.
Ohhhh, I'm a girl and it's wonderful, it fills my
heart with joy.
But sometimes, yes, sometimees, I wish I were a boy.
#2.
Oh, he's dancing with another and he's holding her
so tight.
Wish I had nerve to cut right in and stop it but
a girl has to be polite.
Ohhhh-ohhh-oooh-oooh, I'm a girl and it's wonderful,
it fills my heart with joy.
But sometimes, yes, sometimes, I wish I were a boy.
#3.
Now, the record hop is over and I think he caught
my eye.
Here he comes heading straight in my direction
there he goes, he's passing me by.
Ohhhh-ohhh-oooh-oooh, I'm a girl and it's wonderful,
it fills my heart with joy.
But sometimes, yes, sometimes, I wish I were a boy.
Sometimes, yes, sometimes, I wish I were a boy.
Sometimes, yes, sometimes, I wish I were a boy.
