When I'm One (Bill Thomas)

When I'm one I can have lots of fun
Just lying around in the sun
Or I'll crawl on my knees
Chase the dog and his fleas
When I'm one, when I'm one

When I'm two all the things I can do
I'll stumble around in my shoes
I'll bend in the breeze
But I'll learn to say Please
When I'm two, when I'm two

When I'm three, Hey ma, look at me
I know just what I'm gonna be
A fireman, a nurse, a lawyer, or worse
When I'm three, when I'm three

Each day I get bigger
Each day I grow tall
Use a yardstick to figure
Put a mark on the wall
Hey la de da da de da.

When I'm four I'll help sweep up the floor
I'll've just learned to unlock the door
So keep your eyes peeled
I'll run off through the field
When I'm four, when I'm four

When I'm five I can reach to the sky
With a devilish look in my eye
I'll tell you I'm eight
And I'll clean up my plate
When I'm five, When I'm five

Each day I get bigger
Each day I grow tall
Use a yardstick to figure
Put a mark on the wall
Hey la de da da de da

When I'm six I'll know all kinds of tricks
I'll read you a book just for kicks
So send me to school
And I'll learn all the rules
When I'm six, when I'm six.

Each day I get bigger,
Each day I grow tall
Use a yardstick to figure
Mark it high on the wall
Hey la de da da de da.
