  • Midwinter's day, it's cold, and I know for certain
    When I go outside and my head started hurtin'
    It's a winter's day and I know for certain
    When I go outside my head'll start hurtin'
    So I'll wrap it up in materials to
    Keep my hair 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

    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
    I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child

    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're goin' know no barbershop
    Cause I want yeah I want I know for certain

    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
    I'm gonna want the child to be a long-haired child
    That's for sure, yeah, baby, that's for sure

    When the snow it hits my temple
    I wanna 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

    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 child 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
