When I grow up
I'm gonna do it all
I'm gonna fly around the world in a rocket ship
Be the first man to ride a dinosaur
When I grow up
I'm gonna see it all
I'm gonna dig my way down to china and back
Do it all wearing a cowboy hat
When I grow up
When I grow up
I'll be as big as a bear
I'm gonna have a roller coaster just for myself
There won't be any room for anyone else
When I grow up
I'm gonna grow out a beard
I'm gonna wear a fancy suit when I go to church
Or have more money than the size of the earth
When I grow up
There's so many things I'm gonna do
Because I wished on a star
To let my dreams come true
Fly around the world
Then go off into space
Be back in time for dinner
And I'll clean my plate
I'm gonna make my daddy proud
And you can bet I'll give my momma the world
I'm gonna do it all
When I grow up
When I grow up
I'm gonna live on a farm
I'm gonna spend my every day racing round on a tractor
On second thoughts I think I'll be an actor
When I grow up
I'll have a pirate ship
Big enough to have two basketball courts
Call me Michael Jordan with a peg leg in shorts
When I grow up
There's so many things I'm gonna do
Because I wished on a star
To let my dreams come true
Fly around the world
Then go off into space
Be back in time for dinner
And I'll clean my plate
I'm gonna make my daddy proud
And you can bet I'll give my momma the world
I'm gonna do it all
When I grow up
These days its hard to tell
Where my time has gone
But deep down inside I know
I'm still the same kid
I once was
So when I grow up
And I look back
I wanna say I did the best I can
That I'm proud to be the man I am
When I grow up
I'll be just like my dad
I'm gonna show my young kids how to follow their dreams
So they can live out the life they dream of
There's so many things I'm gonna do
Because I wished on a star
To let my dreams come true
Fly around the world
Then go off into space
Be back in time for dinner
And I'll clean my plate
Well dad I hope I made you proud
And mum you gotta know you're my world
I'm gonna do it all
I'm gonna do it all
I'm gonna do it all
When I grow up
When I grow up
