"Boys"

Mary Mcbride


There are boys who are believers
boys who are crooks
There are boys who do nothing
but give you dirty looks
There are boys who run around
And boys who want to stay 
There are boys who bank on magic
to get through every day

Boys who wanna get hitched 
Are holding out for me 
Saying I own you and you own me
Till I just wanna scream 

There are boys who are angels 
boys who can't fly 
There are boys who like it rough
There are boys who like to ride
Boys who spend every night 
Staring at the sky
There are boys who don't believe you
When you wave bye bye

There are boys who are drinkers
boys who are dry
There are boys who get nasty 
the first time you cry
There are boys who hear nothing
But words that they say
Boys who can't believe 
They gotta live another day
