Driving through town, just my boy and me With a Happy Meal in his booster seatKnowing that he couldn't have the toy until his nuggets were goneA green traffic light turned straight to red I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breathHis eyes went a-flyin' and his orange drink covered his laughWell, then my four-year-old said a four-letter wordIt started with S and I was concerned So I said, son, now where'd you learnTo talk like that?He said, I've been watchin' you, dad, ain't that cool?I'm your bugaroo, I wanna be like you And eat all my foodAnd grow as tall as you areWe've got cowboy boots and camel pants Yeah, we're just alike, hey, ain't we, dad?I wanna do everything you doSo I've been watchin' youI got back home and I went to the barn I bowed my head and I prayed real hardSaid, Lord, please help me help my stupid selfAnd this side of bedtime later that night Turnin' on my son's scooby-doo nightlightHe crawled out of bed and he got down on his kneesHe closed his little eyes, folded his little handsSpoke to God like he was talkin' to a friend And I said, son, now where'd you learnTo pray like that?He said, I've been watchin' you, dad, ain't that cool?I'm your bugaroo, I wanna be like you And eat all my foodAnd grow as tall as you areWe like fixin' things and holdin' mama's hand Yeah, we're just alike, hey, ain't we, dad?I wanna do everything you doSo I've been watchin' youWith tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug Said, my little bear is growin' upHe said, but when I'm big I'll still know what to doCause I've been watchin' you, dad, ain't that cool?I'm your bugaroo, I wanna be like you And eat all my foodAnd grow as tall as you areI said, I'll be strong as Superman We'll be just alike, hey, won't we, dad?When I can do everything you doCause I've been watchin' youThank you
