Gary Allen Tough Little Boys Lyrics

Tough Little Boys Lyrics

Well I never once backed down from a punch

 Well I take it square on the chin

 Well I found out fast that bullies just laugh 

 And weve got to stand up again

 So I didnt cry when I got a black eye

 As bad as it hurt Id just grinned

 But when tough little boys grow up to be dads

 They turn into big babies again

 Scared me to death when you took your first steps

 Well Id fall every time you fell down

 Your first day to school I cried like a fool

 And I followed your school bus to town

 Well I didnt cry when Old Yeller died

 At least not in front of my friends

 But when tough little boys grow up to be dads 

 They turn into big babies again

 Well Im a grown man but as strong as I am 

 Well sometimes its hard to believe 

 That one little girl with little blond curls 

 Can totally terrify me

 If you were to ask my wife would just laugh

 Shed say I know all about men

 Now tough little boys grow up to be dads

 They turn into big babies again

 Well I know one day Ill give you away

 And Im gonna stand there and smile

 But when I get home and Im all alone 

 And Ill sit in your room for a while

 Well I didnt cry when Old Yeller died

 At least not in front of my friends

 But when tough little boys grow up to be dads

 They turn into big babies again

 When tough little boys grow up to be dads

 They turn into big babies again
