Six year old
Eighty-four
Glued to the TV
Smiling red and white and blue
Was all that I could see
And then she stuck the landing
Got a perfect ten
Only she could stick the landing
And do it all again
I wanna be like Mary Lou
I wanna do what she can do
I wanna be the person
Only she knows how to be
I wanna be like Mary Lou
So then the world will love me, too
And maybe someday
Some other little girl will wanna be like me
Cut my hair
Practiced hard
Fourteen hour days
Sprain an ankle
Break a bone
A hundred different ways
Cuz I wanna stick the landing
Every time I try
Yeah, I have to stick the landing
And she's the reason why
I wanna be like Mary Lou
I wanna do what she can do
I wanna be the person
Only she knows how to be
I wanna be like Mary Lou
So then the world will love me, too
And maybe someday
Some other little girl will wanna be like me
And she was on the Wheaties box
The first girl I saw on the Wheaties box
Her face was on the Wheaties box
So it's all that I would eat
She was on the Wheaties box
And I wanna be on the Wheaties box
And when I'm on the Wheaties box
I'll know that I'm complete
I'm gonna stick the landing
A perfect, solid stance
I've gotta stick the landing
If I ever have a chance
To be like Mary Lou
I can do what she can do
I'm gonna be the person
That we both know how to be
I wanna be like Mary Lou
I know the world will love me, too
And I know someday
Some other little girl
Will wanna be like me
I hope someday
Some other little girl
Will wanna be like me
