You made me cry
Be proud that I
Remember
My chin is sore
The bruise is gone
But the spot is tender
Gave my hand a sister coy
To Cotton Alley where
You did enjoy
Your wicked games
You curious boy
Tied my laces up together
When I fell
You laughed
Until your belly was sore
In the brick laid aisle behind
The five and dime store
That's how
I made you blush
But doubt if you
Remember
Were my tears genuine
Or those of a skilled
Pretender
Nothing precious
Plain to see
Don't make a fuss over me
Not loud
Not soft
But somewhere in between
Say sorry
Let it be
The word you mean
I was a little pest who
Never took a hint
Could never
Take a hint
You pinched my fingers
In a door
Tossed my coloring book in a
Rusty barrel
Pulled spiders from my hair
Fingers in the door
My favorite blue blouse
Stained on the back
Running from a berry war
Can you hear me scream
In Cotton Alley
Scream in Cotton Alley
In Cotton Alley
One time You made me cry Be proud that I Remember My chin is sore The bruise is gone But the spot is tender Gave my hand a sister coy To Cotton Alley where You did enjoy Your wicked games You curious boy Tied my laces up together When I fell You laughed Until your belly was sore In the brick laid aisle behind The five and dime store That's how I made you blush But doubt if you Remember Were my tears genuine Or those of a skilled Pretender Nothing precious Plain to see Don't make a fuss over me Not loud Not soft But somewhere in between Say sorry Let it be The word you mean I was a little pest who Never took a hint Could never Take a hint You pinched my fingers In a door Tossed my coloring book in a Rusty barrel Pulled spiders from my hair Fingers in the door My favorite blue blouse Stained on the back Running from a berry war Can you hear me scream In Cotton Alley Scream in Cotton Alley In Cotton Alley Explain Request ×
