I think the song was called Turn Around. I think Ed Ames sang it, not sure though. I just remember hearing it myself. The end says something like, "turn around and you're a old man with kids all your own."

Where are you goin' my little one, little one?

Going out of the door

CHORUS

Turn around
Turn around
Turn around and you're a young girl/boy
Going out of the door
Turn around and you're a young wife/man
With babes of you're own

Where are you going' my little one, little one?
Little dirndles and petticoats/snakes & puppy dog tails,
where have you gone?
Turn around and you're tiny
Turn around and you're grown
Turn around and you're a young wife/man
With babes of your own

CHORUS

Where are you goin' my little one, little one?
Where are you goin' my baby my own?
