[00:16.855]I remember the day you
[00:19.355]Appeared on this earth
[00:21.205]With eyes like the ocean
[00:23.308]Got blood on my shirt
[00:25.908]From my camera angle
[00:27.360]It looked like it hurt
[00:29.661]But your mama
[00:30.612]Had a big old smile
[00:34.462]We drove you home
[00:36.163]Saw your yellowing skin
[00:38.363]Packed a few things
[00:40.013]And drove you back again
[00:42.514]Stayed up all night
[00:44.564]Worrying wondering
[00:46.960]What was gonna make it better
[00:51.211]Broken bones heal
[00:52.861]When you set them right
[00:55.011]Get your fine tooth comb
[00:57.013]From the barbicide
[00:59.466]Our love's a protective poison
[01:03.966]Well you are your mother's child
[01:08.418]And she'll keep you for a while
[01:12.071]But someday you'll be grown
[01:15.022]And then you'll be on your own
[01:25.637]Halloween costume
[01:27.437]Looking real cute
[01:29.237]With your pillowcase full
[01:31.138]In your astronaut suit
[01:33.588]But your cousin the cowboy
[01:35.788]Is eyeing your loot
[01:38.483]Better watch your Snickers bar
[01:42.683]Out on the diamond
[01:44.533]Now you're up to bat
[01:46.484]Chewing your big league
[01:48.834]Adjusting your hat
[01:51.134]Taking a swing
[01:52.534]And hearing it crack
[01:55.435]Look at that apple fly
[01:59.735]Tears will dry
[02:01.135]If you give them time
[02:03.185]Life's a roller coaster
[02:05.187]Keep your arms inside
[02:08.087]Fear that's a big emotion
[02:12.287]Well you are your mother's child
[02:16.638]And she'll keep you for a while
[02:20.360]But one day you'll be grown
[02:23.268]And then you'll
[02:23.868]Be on your own
[02:33.830]Posing for pictures
[02:35.633]Cap and a gown
[02:38.185]Summer is coming
[02:40.035]You're driving around town
[02:42.036]Everyone's asking
[02:44.036]What you're gonna do now
[02:46.136]I know you're gonna make a splash
[02:51.089]And find you a sweetheart
[02:53.090]To treat you so kind
[02:55.291]Invite her to dinner
[02:57.092]And kiss her goodnight
[02:59.342]What I couldn't teach you
[03:01.492]You will realize
[03:03.592]She's the only thing that matters
[03:08.344]Although he's a bastard
[03:10.094]Make your papa proud
[03:12.344]Your a fine young man
[03:14.098]And I got no doubt
[03:16.949]That you're gonna
[03:17.949]Do this better
[03:20.800]Cause you are your mother's child
[03:25.869]She had you for a while
[03:30.121]But now that you're grown
[03:31.821]May you never be on your own
[03:39.019]Well now that you're grown
[03:40.819]May you never be on your own
