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


[Break]

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
