[Verse 1]
A mid-winter's day, it's cold
And I know for certain
When I go outside
My head'll start hurtin'
It's a winter's day
And I know for certain
When I go outside
My head'll start hurtin'

[Verse 2]
So I wrap it up in materials, to
Keep my head from getting cold
I'll wrap it up in materials, to
Keep my hair from getting cold
And I said, tell my friends, when I have kids
Yeah, I said, tell my friends, when I have kids

[Chorus]
I'm gonna want that child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child

[Verse 3]
When I go outside to mingle in the snow
My head look like a globe
Ain't no hair on it at all
Do I buy a wig?
Should I grow my beard?
And comb it upwards
And around my ears
Well, I can't wait for the kids to come
No, I can't wait for the kids to come
Say, "Hey babe, you go no-no barbershop"
‘Cause I want
Yeah, I want
Now I know for certain
[Chorus]
I'mma want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
That's for sure
Yeah, baby that's for sure

[Verse 4]
When the snow it hits my temple
I want to rush home, put on the kettle now
And warm my little brain and bald head
I'm too cold to know if I'm alive or dead

[Verse 5]
But when my baby slips out my mama's womb
When my baby slips out my mama's womb
We're gonna enter a new life
Enter a new life, that's for sure
You're gonna enter your self
Back through your baby's front door
Now if you want that baby to be a long-haired child
You're gonna make that baby be a long-haired child
That's for sure
Baby, baby, that's for sure
[Outro]
Shoo-bop, shoo-bop
Shoo-bop, shoo-bop
Shoo-bop, shoo-bop
Shoo-bop, shoo-bop
