Maybe when it's day, it's cold, and I know for certain When I go outside my head will start hurtin It's a winter's day and I know for certain When I go outside my head will start hurtin So I'll wrap it up in materials To keep my head from getting cold I'll wrap it up in materials to To keep my head from getting cold And I said to all my friends when I have kids Yeah I said to all my friends when I have kids I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child And I go outside and mingle in the snow My head looks like a globe Ain't no hair on it at all Do I buy a wig? Should I grow my beard And comb it upwards And around my ears? Well I can't wait for the kids to come No I can't wait for the kids to come Say, "Hey, babe, you ain't going to no barber shop!" 'Cause I want, yeah, I want I know for certain I want the child to be a long-haired child I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child Baby, that's for sure, baby, that's for sure And when the snow it hits my temple I wanna rush home and put on the kettle now And warm my little brain and bald head I'm too cold to know if I'm alive or dead But when my baby slips out my mama's womb When my baby slips out my mama's womb We're gonna enter a new life Enter a new life, that's for sure You're gonna enter your self back through your baby's front door Now if you want that child to be a long-haired child You're gonna make that baby be a long-haired child that's for sure Baby, baby, that's for sure Shoo bop, shoo bop Shoo bop, shoo bop
