SONG LYRICS

When he was a 'bitty boy he asked his daddy for a toy
But he said just go away and make due with what you play so not today

Then later on and not quite ten and the guts to ask again but he said stop making noise besides you’re older than the other boys who have the toys

The older you get, you don’t forget
The little boy you had you never met
It was more than just the toys
It was more than just the toys

Baseball, the game he grew to love he wished only for a glove Billy lent him one to play and they played catch all night and day so a lefty he became…

The older you get, you don’t forget
The little boy you had you never met
It was more than just the game
It was more than just the game

At fourteen daddy said goodbye he never stopped to wonder why but he asked, while on your way could you drop me off to play? If its OK?

The older you get, you don’t forget
The little boy you had you never met
It was more than just the toys
It was more than just the toys

Repeat
