[00:00.00]Watching You - Rodney Atkins - Various Artists
[00:14.79]Drivin' through town just my boy and me
[00:17.99]With a 'Happy Meal' in his booster seat
[00:21.77]Knowin' that he couldn't have the toy
[00:23.88]Til his nuggets were gone
[00:28.58]A green traffic light turned straight to red
[00:32.10]I hit in my brakes and mumbled under my breath
[00:35.62]His fries went a flyin'
[00:36.92]And his orange drink covered his lap
[00:42.08]Well, then my 4 year old said a 4 letter word
[00:46.00]It started with 'S' and I was concerned
[00:49.42]So I said, Son,
[00:51.19]Now where'd you learn to talk like that?
[00:57.41]He said, I've been watching you,
[00:59.49]Dad aint that cool?
[01:01.16]I'm your buckaroo,
[01:02.95]I want to be like you
[01:04.71]And eat all my food,
[01:06.84]And grow as tall as you are
[01:11.65]"We got cowboy boots and camo pants
[01:15.03]Yeah, were just alike, hey, aint we dad
[01:18.92]I want to do everything you do
[01:24.69]So I've been watching you"
[01:32.93]We got back home
[01:34.30]And I went to the barn
[01:36.36]I bowed my head
[01:37.73]And I prayed real hard
[01:39.86]Said, Lord,
[01:40.40]Please help me help my stupid self
[01:46.88]Just this side of bedtime later that night
[01:50.28]Turnin' on my sons Scooby-doo night light
[01:53.77]He crawled out of bed
[01:55.26]And he got down on his knees
[02:00.40]He closed his little eyes,
[02:02.13]Folded his little hands
[02:04.32]Spoke to God like he was talkin' to a friend
[02:07.86]And I said, Son,
[02:09.47]Now where'd you learn to pray like that?
[02:15.60]He said, I've been watching you,
[02:17.67]Dad aint that cool?
[02:19.39]I'm your buckaroo,
[02:21.18]I want to be like you
[02:23.11]And eat all my food,
[02:25.04]And grow as tall as you are"
[02:29.88]"We like fixin' things and holding momma's hand
[02:33.31]Yeah, were just alike,
[02:35.06]Hey, aint we dad?
[02:37.24]I want to do everything you do
[02:42.84]So I've been watching you"
[02:47.67]With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug
[02:50.79]Said, My little bear is growin' up
[02:54.74]And he said,"But when I'm big
[02:58.16]I'll still know what to do"
[03:02.45]"Cause I've been watching you,
[03:04.59]Dad aint that cool?
[03:06.35]I'm your buckaroo,
[03:08.10]I want to be like you
[03:10.00]And eat all my food,
[03:12.01]And grow as tall as you are"
[03:16.92]"By then I'll be strong as superman
[03:20.25]Well be just alike, hey, won't we dad?
[03:24.12]When I can do everything you do
[03:29.82]'Cause I've been watching you"
[03:37.75]Hey, hey, oh, oh
