I want a son

Someone I can blame for turnin' gay

To share my name, to share my days

To share the things I've earned

The lessons that I've learned along the way



He'd have a frie-iend and we'd have fun

I love to laugh and I would love to have a son



I want a girl

Twirlin' 'round the room in pink and blue

To count on me, to see her through

Who'd worry when I'm late

And tell me that I'm great when it's not true



She'd have a frie-iend and we'd have fun

I'd love a daughter just as I would love a son



I wanna care

I wanna wonder where they are

And see the things that bother them

And carry on the things I love

When I'm go-o-one



For giving me

I'd be good for them, I really would

They'd have someone who understood

Who'd always be around and never let them dow-own

I never could



He'd have a frie-iend, we'd ha-ave fun

She'd have a frie-iend, we'd all be one

I'd love to have a girl

Or I would love to ha-a-ave a son...
