Letras
Drivin' through town, just my boy and me
With a Happy Meal and 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 my brakes and mumbled under my breath
His fries went flyin' and his orange drink covered his lap
Well, then my four-year-old said a four-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 watchin' you, Dad, ain't that cool?
I'm your buckaroo, I wanna 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 wanna do everything you do
So I've been watchin' 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 watchin' you, Dad, ain't that cool?
I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are
We like fixin' things and holdin' Mama's hand
Yeah, we're just alike, hey, ain't we, Dad?
I wanna do everything you do
So I've been watchin' 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 watchin' you, Dad, ain't that cool?
I'm your buckaroo, I wanna 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 watchin' you"
Hey, yeah
Uh-huh
