Can't cotton candy help buy a little boy by himslef
Bought with a dime his mama gave him
Same thing happened yesterday when he was sent away
Deprived of love that he was craving
Little boy life remember the time it used to be a nickel and now it's a dime
Little boy cry it's handout time love slips away a dime at a time a dime at a time
[ ac.guitar ]
He would gladly give away the ten cent smile they bought today
If that only take the time to hold him
Why he'd be glad he wouldn't mind although he's not the crying kind
If that only care enough to scold him and to hold him
Little boy life remember the time...
