"Will I Ever Grow Up" lyrics - RAFFI

Will I ever grow up, Mama?
Will I ever grow up, Papa?
Will I ever grow up to be like you
So big and strong?

Will I ever grow up, Mama?
Do you think that I can, Papa?
Will I ever grow up to be like you?
Say that I will.

Can I be a grown-up, too
Doing things grown-ups do
Going off to work one day
All by myself?

Will I have a grown-up voice
Wearing grown-up clothes
And babies of my own
In my family home?

Will I ever grow up, Mama?
Will I ever grow up, Papa?
Will I ever grow up to be like you
So big and strong?

Will I ever grow up, Mama?
Do you think that I can, Papa?
Will I ever grow up to be like you?
Say that I will.

Will I ever grow up?
Can't I be just like you?
Say that I will.
