Childhood is precious. Enjoy it. Through the eyes of an over-doting Daddy.

No Matter What Your Age Is


©2003 S. McGaughey June 22, 2003
(International assistance via IM by Sarah McGaughey)
This is an echo song ...
I am one (I am one)
I can have a bit of fun
I can crawl across the room, pile the books on the table
or go for a toilet paper run.
Ther world's big and intresting
I'll have to learn to run.
I am one, I am one, I am one

I am two (I am two)
And I have so much to do (And I have so much to do )
I can make a picture, sing a song, and try to put on my own shoe.
I can tell you what I think about that really yucky stew
I am two, I am two, I am two

Chorus
And No Matter what your age is
It the very best you see
Cause you're growing every day now
Mom and Dad want you to be
Everything you ever dreamed of
Cause they love you endlessly
Be a Kid! Be a Kid! Be a Kid!

I am three (I am three)
A fantastic age to be (A fantastic age to be)
Sometimes Daddy helps me build a castle but he won't let me climb a tree.
I want to be an acrobat, ride a bike or learn to ski.
I am three, I am three, I am three

I am four (I am four)
I am learning so much more (I am learning so much more)
I get to go to school now, and I can run till my feet are sore
Sometimes mommy gives me money to buy candy at the store
I am four, I am four, I am four





Bridge (Melody - Rain Rain Go Away)
1 2 3 4 5
I'm so glad to be alive
6 7 8 9 10
I would do it all again

I am five(I am five)
I can do a dive (I can do a dive)
In the swimming pool is where I feel most alive.
I can splash around, blow bubbles, do a float, and paddle around the pool
I am five, I am five, I am five.

I am six (I am six)
And sometimes I play tricks (And sometimes I play tricks)
On my rotten old big brother, so please don't tell St. Nick
I'm a really good kid mostly and it's just a little trick.
I am six, I am six, I am six



I am 25 (I am 25)
I am old enough to drive
I can drive a motorcyle in my sandles and its jive
until I tip it over on myself
An exciting dive
