Somebody buy me an enchilada, / So I can eat on my very own. / It's like a grilled steak or a stewed tomata, / You gotta drop that heavy load. / (Chorus:) / I'm just a kid, taking my time, / Doing the things my father did. / I'm just a kid, off on my own, / Follow my dreams; come running home. / Somebody buy me a pair of sneakers, / So I can learn how to tie my shoes. / It's like a toy drum or a rubber squeaker, / You gotta sing those baby blues. / (Repeat Chorus) / Somebody give me a piece of paper, / So I can learn how to read and write. / It's like a hole punch or a mini-stapler: / The fun keeps you up all night. / (Repeat Chorus) / I'm just a kid. / I'm just a kid. / I'm just a kid.
