Charlie Camp When Kids Were Kids Lyrics

When we were young we used to run like the wind
And life passed by nice and slow
There was no need to know

When kids were kids, a long time ago
They used to play with baseballs and dolls
They never came inside in the day
Unless a rain storm kept them away

I wish we all could travel back in time
And spend a day with them
Just ride and run and jump like we used to do
Relive our childhood again

When kids were kids, a long time ago
They used to ride their bikes in the road
They never came inside in the day
Unless the rain clouds kept them away

The sun would always shine if I had my way
And every boy and girl would have time to play
Birds would be singing in the sky up above
And every mom and dad would give them all their love

I'm not implying that today isn't cool
We've come a long way from then
All I am saying is some things shouldn't change
Let kids be kids again

When kids were kids, a long time ago
They used to play fox and geese in the snow
They never came inside in the day
Unless a snow storm kept them away
