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

Thousands 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

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
