Little children
You better not tell on me
I'm tellin' you
Little children
You better not tell what you see
And if you're good
I'll give you candy and a quarter
If you're quiet like you oughta be
And keep a secret with me
I wish they would go away
Little children
Now why ain't you playin' outside
I'm askin' you
You can't fool me
'Cause I'm gonna know if you hide
And try to peek
I'm gonna treat you to a movie
Stop your gigglin'
Children do be nice
Like little sugars and spice
You saw me kissin' your sister
You saw me holdin' her hand
But if you snitch to your mother
Your father won't understand
I wish they would take a nap
Little children
Now why don't you go bye-bye
Go anywhere at all
Little children
I know you would go if you tried
Go up the stairs
Me and your sister
We're goin' steady
How can I kiss her
When I'm ready to
With little children like you around
I wonder what can I do around
Little children like you
