I wish lyrics

Artist  : Stevie wonder 
Song : I wish
 
Looking back on when I was a little nappyheaded
boy

then my only worry was for Christmas what would
be my toy.
Even though we sometimes would not get a thing

we were happy with the joy the day would bring.
Sneakin' out the back door to hangout
with those hoodlum friends of mine.

Ooh
greeted at the back door with

Boy, I thought I told you not to go outside.
Tryin' the best to bring the water to your eyes

thinkin' it might stop her from whoopin' your
behind.

I wish these days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go?
I wish those days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go

'cause I loved them so.
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

do do do do do do do do do do do do.

Brother says he's tellin'
'Bout you playin' doctor with that girl
Just don't tell
I'll give you
Anything you want in this whole wide world.
mama gives you money for Sunday school
You trade yours for candy after church is
through.

Smokin' cigarettes and writing something
nasty on the wall (you nasty boy).
Teacher sends you to the principal's office down
the hall.
You grow up and learn that kinda thing ain't
right
But while you were doin't it - it sure felt outta
sight.

I wish those days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go?
I wish those days could come back once more.
Why did those days ever have to go?
'Cause I loved them so.
