Intro: Sometimes yes sometimes I wish I were a boy. #1. I’ve been standing by the jukebox hoping he’d   ask me to dance. How I wish I could run to him and hug him but a   girl mustn’t make an advance. Ohhhh I’m a girl and it’s wonderful it fills my   heart with joy. But sometimes yes sometimees I wish I were a boy. #2. Oh he’s dancing with another and he’s holding her   so tight. Wish I had nerve to cut right in and stop it..but   a girl has to be polite. Ohhhh-ohhh-oooh-oooh I’m a girl and it’s wonderful it fills my heart with joy. But sometimes yes sometimes I wish I were a boy. #3. Now the record hop is over and I think he caught   my eye. Here he comes heading straight in my direction.. there he goes he’s passing me by. Ohhhh-ohhh-oooh-oooh I’m a girl and it’s wonderful it fills my heart with joy. But sometimes yes sometimes I wish I were a boy. OUTRO: Sometimes yes sometimes I wish I were a boy. Sometimes yes sometimes I wish I were a boy.

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque les réflexions d'une jeune fille qui se sent parfois limitée par son rôle de femme dans les interactions sociales, surtout sur la piste de danse. Elle exprime son désir d’avoir plus de liberté et de courage pour exprimer ses sentiments, notamment envers un garçon qu'elle aime, mais elle se sent entravée par les attentes sociétales. Elle admire la beauté d'être une fille, mais éprouve parfois le regret de ne pas pouvoir agir avec la même assurance que les garçons. C’est un mélange de joie et de frustration face aux conventions de la jeunesse.
