歌曲 | Watching You |
歌手 | Rodney Atkins |
专辑 | Greatest Hits |
Drivin' through town just my boy and me | |
With a 'Happy Meal' in his booster seat | |
Knowin' that he couldn't have the toy â€~til his nuggets were gone | |
A green traffic light turned straight to red | |
I hit in my brakes and mumbled under my breath | |
His fries went a flyin' and his orange drink covered his lap | |
Well, then my 4 year old said a 4 letter word | |
It started with 'S' and I was concerned | |
So I said, ‽Son, now where'd you learn to talk like that?†| |
He said, ‽I've been watching you, dad ain't that cool? | |
I'm your buckaroo, I want to be like you | |
And eat all my food, and grow as tall as you are†| |
"We got cowboy boots and camo pants | |
Yeah, we're just alike, hey, ain't we dad | |
I want to do everything you do | |
So I've been watching you" | |
We got back home and I went to the barn | |
I bowed my head and I prayed real hard | |
Said, ‽Lord, please help me help my stupid self†| |
Just this side of bedtime later that night | |
Turnin' on my son's Scooby-doo night light | |
He crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees | |
He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands | |
Spoke to God like he was talkin' to a friend | |
And I said, ‽Son, now where'd you learn to pray like that?†| |
He said, ‽I've been watching you, dad ain't that cool? | |
I'm your buckaroo, I want to be like you | |
And eat all my food, and grow as tall as you are" | |
"We like fixin' things and holding moma's hand | |
Yeah, we're just alike, hey, ain't we dad? | |
I want to do everything you do | |
So I've been watching you" | |
With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug | |
Said, ‽My little bear is growin' up†| |
And he said, ‽But when I'm big | |
I'll still know what to do†| |
€"'Cause I've been watching you, dad ain't that cool? | |
I'm your buckaroo, I want to be like you | |
And eat all my food, and grow as tall as you are" | |
"By then I'll be strong as superman | |
We'll be just alike, hey, won't we dad? | |
When I can do everything you do | |
'Cause I've been watching you" | |
Hey, hey, oh, oh |
Drivin' through town just my boy and me | |
