Lyrics
When I was a little bitty boy,
Everyone would ask me
What you want to be when you grow up?
What you wanna be?
When I was a little bitty boy,
Everyone would ask me
Where you want to go when you grow up?
Where you wanna go?
And I would say... I don't know, let me think on it.
Chorus:
I want to be an astronaut,
Climb a mountain top,
Swim the sevens seas,
Jump on a trampoline,
Join the circus and,
See the world all first hand,
Go to the moon for awhile,
Come back, maybe watch TV.
Sit it in my room and wonder,
What will I be?
When I was a little bitty boy,
Momma always told me,
Do what you want,
Be what you please.
When I was a little bitty boy,
Momma always told me,
Please be kind to others,
Please be kind.
Cause it will get you far in this world of ours.
Chorus
