Skeeter Davis - I Don't Wanna Play House

Skeeter Davis - I Don't Wanna Play House (1968)
A great song by one of Skeeter favorite girl singers Tammy Wynette

I DON'T WANNA PLAY HOUSE
(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton)

Today I sat alone at my window
And I watched our little girl outside at play
With the little boy next door like so many times before
But something didn't seem quite right today

So I went outside to see what they were doing
And then the teardrops made my eyes grow dim
Cause I heard him name a game and I hung my head in shame
When I heard our little girl say to him

I don't wanna play house I know it can't be fun
I watched mommy and daddy and if that's the way it's done
I don't wanna play house it makes my mommy cry
Cause when she played house my daddy said goodbye

I don't wanna play house I know it can't be fun...

Any chance you have Skeeter's version of "Timothy"?

Skeeter is very underrated it's such a shame.
