Watching You Lyrics

Drivin’ through town just my boy and me With a 'Happy Meal' in his booster seat Knowin’ that he couldn’t have the toy ‘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
