don't want to play in your yard,
I don't like you anymore.
You'll be sorry when you see me
Sliding down our cellar door.

You can't holler down our rain barrel,
You can't climb our apple tree,
I don't wanna play in your yard,
If you can't be good to me. 

You can't holler down our rain barrel,
You can't climb our apple tree,
I don't wanna play in your yard,
If you can't be good to me.
