Sometimes, ya sometimes, I wish I were a boy! I've been standing by the jukebox Hoping he'd asked me to dance How I wish I could run to him and hug him But a girl musn't make advance Oh-oh-oh, I'm a girl and it's wonderfull It fills my heart with joy but sometimes, ya' sometimes, I wish I were a boy Oh he's dancing with another And he's holding her so tight Wish I had nerve to cut right in and stop it But a girl has to be polite Oh-oh-oh, I'm a girl and it's wonderfull It fills my heart with joy but sometimes, ya' sometimes, I wish I were 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 wonderfull It fills my heart with joy But sometimes, ya sometimes, I wish I were a boy Sometimes, ya sometimes, I wish I were a boy Sometimes, ya sometimes, I wish I were a boy Sometimes, ya sometimes, I wish I were a boy!
