Alabama The Boy Lyrics

The Boy Lyrics

The Boy

Alabama

Album: Roll On



He stays up at night till way after dark

Feeding the dog that lives in our yard

He'll put on my shoes and stumble around

But together we can catch any outlaw in town



The boy tries to be just like me

I'm all that he tries to be

Watching cartoons on my knee

Mamma's little man and me



He wants to know how this and that goes

He'll play all day on a mountain of clay

And he'll fight with me to show that he's strong

But if he gets hurt it's mamma he wants



The boy tries to be just like me

I'm all that he tries to be

Watching cartoons on my knee

Mamma's little man and me



Some day I know he'll leave us alone

Break mamma's heart I'll try to be strong

But if I shed a tear I hope he won't see

The big man is him and the boy is me



The boy tried to be just like me

He's all that I try to be

Now I'm watching cartoons on my knees

And mamma's little man is me



Let's go to bed mamma
