Dolly Parton - Where Do the Children Play lyrics

Well I think it's fine, buildin' jumbo planes

Takin' a ride on a cosmic train

Switch on a summer from a slot machine

Yes you can get what you want if you want it

'Cause you can get anything

I know we've come a long way

We're changin' day to day

But tell me, where do the children play?

Well you roll on roads over fresh green grass

With your heavy loads pumpin' petrol gas

And you make 'em long, and you make 'em tough

And you just go on and on, and it seems you can't get off

I know we've come a long way

We're changin' day to day

But tell me, where do the children play?

Crack of the sky, scrapers fill the air

But you keep on buildin' higher

'Til there's no more room up there

Will you make us laugh?

Will you make us cry?

Will you tell us when to live?

Will you tell us when to die?

I know we've come a long way

We're changin' day to day

But tell me, where do the children play?

Tell me, where do the children play?

Well I think it's fine buildin' jumbo planes

And takin' a ride on a cosmic train

But where do the children play?

Just tell me, where do the children play?
