Eddy Arnold - Now I Think As A Man lyrics

When I was a child I thought as a child I thought of toys on Christmas morn

Of puppy dog tails and chicken corn but now I think as a man

Oh now I think as a man

And as a man I think of you and all the things I'd like to do

As a man with a woman who's love is untrue

When I was a boy of six or so I thought of bein' Buffalo Bill

And ridin' the ponny cross the hill but now I think as a man

Oh now I think as a man

And as a man I think of you...

When I was a freckled face nine or ten I thought of play in trees all day

And chasing all the girls away but now I think as a man

Oh now I think as a man

And as a man I think of you...

Has many a year went flying by too many a broken heart I smile

At the carefree thoughts when I was a child before I thought as a man

Oh now I think as a man
