Drivin through town just my boy and me With a 'Happy Meal' in his booster seat Knowin that he couldnt 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 whered you learn to talk like that? He said, Ive been watching you, dad aint that cool? Im 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, were just alike, hey, aint we dad I want to do everything you do So Ive 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 sons 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 whered you learn to pray like that? He said, Ive been watching you, dad aint that cool? Im 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 momas hand Yeah, were just alike, hey, aint we dad? I want to do everything you do So Ive 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 Im big Ill still know what to do "'Cause Ive been watching you, dad aint that cool? Im your buckaroo, I want to be like you And eat all my food, and grow as tall as you are" "By then Ill be strong as superman Well be just alike, hey, wont we dad? When I can do everything you do 'Cause Ive been watching you" Hey, hey, oh, oh
