Verse 1:
One night I fell in love with a little girl
And I gave her my whole world
And I knew right then I’d never get it back
And I wondered how I fell for thatVerse 2:
Five months later with tears in both her eyes
She handed me those two pink lines
The only test in my whole life I didn’t fail
I told her we’d be fine, but I was scared as hell
Chorus:
Ooohhh, my love, I hope it doesn’t show
But I’m scared to death of drowning
In these things that I don’t know
Ooohhh, my love, I hope you’ll understand
The truth is I’m a boy, who’s tryin to be a man
Verse 3:
I got a hand me down gold ring to make it right
And I could feel you kick when the judge said “Kiss the bride”
But your momma and me we walked out hand in hand
Soon, three against the world, we’d make a stand
Verse 4:
But on the day that you were born she got called home
And it’s the darkest thing my heart has ever known
The doctor said “I’m sorry” And handed you to me
I looked in your blue eyes and couldn’t even speak
Chorus:
To tell you “Oh, my son, I hope it doesn’t show,
But I’m scared to death of drowning
In these things that I don’t know.
Whoa, my son, I hope you’ll understand
The truth is I’m a boy, just tryin to be a man.
Oh your daddy’s just a boy, who’s trying to be a man…
