Little Boy Lyrics

Little Boy
John Hartford
Down on the River
Banjo tuned E, Capo 3, Key of D
Little Boy
When you are a baby,
and ten months old
Everything and anything
You just grab a-hold of
When you're a little boy
Just turned four
You can't get enough
And can't get no more
When you're a little older
And just turned eleven
Begin to think about
People that go to heaven
When you are a young man,
Just turning twenty
Makes it lot harder
If you're not getting any
When you turn forty
You are getting on up there
You don't know how but
You keep getting somewhere
When you turn eighty
Getting to be an old man
Anything is good
Cause you're getting what you can
