THAT'S WHAT LITTLE GIRLS ARE MADE OF
A pretty song and a beautiful smile,
Hugs and kisses that beguile,
A teaparty that may last a while,
That's what little girls are made of.
Baby dolls dressed in their best
Teddy bears who are permanent guests,
Private treasures in a little chest.
That's what little girls are made of.
Playing "dress up" with a friend,
Her greatest joy is to pretend,
Questions that never seem to end.
That's what little girls are made of.
Bubble baths and ribbons for her hair,
Giggling time, and secrets to share,
Plenty of clothes, but nothing to wear.
That's what little girls are made of.
WHAT ARE LITTLE BOYS MADE OF?
A dimpled chin, and a silly grin,
A sticky hug and a pocketful of bugs.
Dirty clothes and a bloody nose,
That's what little boys are made of.
A held back tear and a teddy bear,
A dislike for math and a reluctant bath,
A skinned knee, and a sting from a bee,
That's what little boys are made of.
A bunch of toy cars, old bruises and scars,
kites on strings, and flowers to bring
To a mother, a grandma, a teacher or friend,
That's what little boys are made of.
A knocked out tooth and only half the truth,
A bat and a ball, and handprints on the wall,
A basketful of heartaches, but a heart full of joys,
so give them a hug, and let the boys be boys
because...that's what little boys are made of.
