Look at you now, so wild and free
Watching you move, why can't that be me?
I'm often down, often down
I often cry, often cry
The only thing I know
I wanna be like you, child

I wanna be like you, you
I wanna be like you
I wanna be like you, you
I wanna be like you

Take me to the river
Help me find the sun
I will follow you child
I used to know the way
I forgot it all
I used to be you, child

I wanna be like you, you
I wanna be like you
I wanna be like you, you
I wanna be like you

I wanna be like you, like you
I wanna be like you
I wanna be like you, like
I wanna be like you
