When I was a kid I had a rocking horse

Rocking to and fro, high and low

Where we'd go, no one'd know



Dozens of tin soldiers were at my command

Dressed in red, dressed in blue

Each command always followed through



But now it's not that way at all

No, it's not that way at all



Now I've changed and I have aged

Left here with just memories

How I wish to be young again



But it's not that way at all

No, it's not that way at all



But no, it's not that way at all

No, it's not that way at all

No, it's not that way at all

No, it's not that way at all



When I was a kid, I had a rocking horse

Rocking to and fro, high and low

Where we'd go, no one'd know



But it's not that way at all

No, it's not that way at all
