	Story Behind the Song This song lists just a few of the choices that are available to each and every one of us regarding a chosen career. As children, we will change our minds many times before we finally decide what we want to be but the main theme of the song is meant to be, "stay in school" for without this, we will end up being very little in comparison to what we are capable of. This song was sung by the Grade 2 class from Algonquin School at the "First Children's Festival" in Thunder Bay. Lyrics When I grow up I'm gonna fly a plane Drive a fire truck or run a train Become a diver underneath the sea Be a movie star on T.V. When I grow up I'm gonna play guitar Become a nurse or drive a big race car Work in an office, manage a store Be an animal trainer with a lion that roars. I can be anything I want, that's what my mom and dad told me So I'll stay in school and work real hard 'Cause I want them to be proud of me. When I grow up a captain's what I'll be I'll sail a boat across the deep, blue sea A ballerina or a writer of poems An engineer, a plumber or a builder of homes. When I grow up I wanna ride a horse Live on a farm, be a cowboy of course Become a teacher, join the Navy too There's so many things that I want to do. Chorus
