Gord Bamford - Man of the House by Gord Bamford lyrics

6 a.m. and Bobby's waking up Rolls out of bed with sleepy eyes Gose to his to sisters room across the hall Hey Daisy, rise and shine He pours 2 bowls full of of captain crunch And puts a fresh pot of coffee on He wakes his mama up off the couch The bus is here we love you mom He made the the breakfast, he did the dishes So she wouldn't have to Oh, he's only 10,just coming of age He oughta be out playing ball and vido games Climbing trees or on a bike,just ridding around But it's hard to be a kid when your the man of the house It's late at night and Larry King is on And mama's up on the couch again And Bobby hears them all talk about the war his daddy's in So he runs straight up to his room Don't wan't his mama to see him right now He climbs in his bed and saya a silent prayer Then he cries his little blue eyes out Don't want to let her down Oh,he's only 10 just coming of age He oughta be out playing ball and vido games Climbing trees or on a bike, just ridding around But it's hard to be a kid when your the man of the house It's finally saturday, Bobby gets a phone call Another world away from home He says,"I love you dad", daddy says it right back "wish I could reach through the phone and hug you And Daisy and your mom, I'm so proud of you son" Oh, he's only 10 just coming of age He oughta be out playing ball and vido games Climbing trees or on a bike,just ridding aroud But it's hard to be a kid when your the man of the house 6 A.M. and Bobby's waking up Rolls out of bed with sleepy eyes --- .
