Little Old Me On My Own
Having been brought up an only child
spent a lot of my time on my own
lived in the country with no one around
but learned to be content so very alone
I had many toys to amuse myself with
really loved to play in my little bedroom
tractors trailers cows sheep all around
plastic they were but made me to bloom
Really liked the outdoors too
played on swings across the road
kicked a ball to my hearts content
no particular skill as it showed
But I did enjoy these young days
learning to amuse myself as a kid
looking back on them pleasurably
having few regrets in all I did
