Little boy blue, why do you look so unhappy?
Is it because someone's been picking on you?
Remember what your mommy has to tell you
Sticks and stones can break your bones
But names can never hurt you
Little boy blue, tell mommy all about it
Don't be a mommy's boy, cause that won't do
Grow up to be a strong man like your daddy
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
These things are not for you
Little boy blue, come sit on mommy's lap
You're still young enough to cry
But you're old enough to laugh
Little boy blue, let mommy tell a story
And it's all about a little boy like you
Who came home just to cry on his mommy's shoulder
But his mommy told him what I'm telling you
You gotta be a little man but try to be a big man too
