A5 
When I grow up I want a pony 

I'm gonna ride her from dusk to dawn 

I'm gonna brush her mane 

and feed her sugar cane 

and keep her in safe from the storm 
G5 
If I had a pony 
                         A5 
I wander could I be your girl 

 
A5 
When I grow up I want a baby 

I'm gonna name it after Ralph Stanley 

And I'm sure I won't mind if it cries all night 

just as long as it looks like me 
G5 
If I had a baby 
                         A5 
I wonder could I be your girl? 
 

F5           A5 
Yodelay he Yodeloh oh 
D5          A5 
you rock my world 
F5          A5 
Yodelay he yodeloh  
     F5       E5                  A5 
When I grow up I wanna be your girl 
 

A5 
When I grow up I want a cowboy 

With dust all over his jeans 

with a horse named Jack 

and a ten - gallon hat 

he is nice but he looks so mean 
G5 
If you were a cowboy 
                         A5 
I wonder could I be your girl 
 
CHORUS 
 
Instrumental - play Verse rythem to accompany lead 
 

A5 
When i grow up I'll be a lady 

all my rings will be made of gold 

I'll put flowers in my room 

I'll wear perfume 

I won't listen to Rock'n'roll 
G5                                        A5 
If I was a lady I wonder could I be your girl.

When I grow up I wanna be  
     F5      E5                
When I grow up I wanna be 
     F5      E5                  A5 
When I grow up I wanna be your girl

When I grow up I want a cowboy 
A5 
When i grow up I'll be a lady
