Lyrics for Why Do Little Girls? by Harry Chapin:
| | | Artist: | Harry Chapin |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Why Do Little Girls? | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 93 | | | | Lyrics: | Why did the little girls grow crooked
While the little boys grow tall
The boys were taught
to tumble
The girls told not to fall
The girls answered the telephone
The boys answered
the call
That's why little girls grew crooked
While the little boys grew tall
Why
did the little girls grow crippled
While the little boys grow strong
The boys allowed to
come of age
The girls just came along
The girls were told sing harmonies
The boys could
all sing songs
That's why little girls grew crippled
While little boys grew
strong
Why did the little girls come broken
While the little boys came whole
The
little boys were set aflame
The girls told to fan the coals
The boys all told to be
themselves
While the girls were told play the roles
That's why little girls came
broken
While little boys came whole
Why were the little girls all frightened
To be
just what they are
The boys were told to ask themselves
How high how far
The girls were
told to reach the shelves
While the boys were reaching stars
That's why little girls were
frightened
To be just what they are
And still they bled for us all
As the moon rode
the sky
They carried our seed
When our need ran high
They fed all our children
In
the night as they cried
Womankind wept
As mankind died
Why were the little girls
left hurtin'
When all the boys were done
And the girls left in the moonlight
When the
boys went to meet the sun
And when the girls were open
Why had the little all
won?
That's why little girls were hurtin'
When the little boys were done
Why did
the little girls grow crooked
While the little boys grew tall-acapo | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
