Sometimes ya sometimes I wish I ______ a boy

Hoping he'd asked me to dance.

But a girl mustn’t make an advance.

Oh-oh-oh I'm a girl and it's wonderful.

It fills my heart with joy.

But sometimes ya' sometimes, I wish I ______ a boy.

Oh he's dancing with another.

And he's holding her so tight.

Wish I ______ nerve to cut right in and stop it.

But a girl has to be polite.

It fills my heart with joy.

But sometimes ya' sometimes I wish I ______ a boy.

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.

Oh-oh-oh I'm a girl and it's wonderful.

It fills my heart with joy.

But sometimes ya sometimes I wish I _______ a bo-o-o-o-oy.

Sometimes ya sometimes I wish I _____ a bo-o-o-o-oy.
