歌詞

I remember the day you appeared on this earth With eyes like the ocean, got blood on my shirt From my camera angle it looked like it hurt But your mama had a big old smile We drove you home, saw your yellowing skin Packed a few things and drove you back again Stayed up all night worrying, wondering What was gonna make it better Broken bones heal when you set them right Get your fine tooth comb from the barbicide Our love's a protective poison Well you are your mother's child And she'll keep you for a while But someday you'll be grown and then you'll be on your own Halloween costume, looking real cute With your pillowcase full, in your astronaut suit But your cousin the cowboy is eyeing your loot Better watch your Snickers bar Out on the diamond, now you're up to bat Chewing your big league, adjusting your hat Taking a swing and hearing it crack Look at that apple fly Tears will dry if you give them time Life's a roller coaster, keep your arms inside Fear that's a big emotion Well you are your mother's child And she'll keep you for a while But one day you'll be grown and then you'll be on your own Posing for pictures, cap and a gown Summer is coming, you're driving around town Everyone's asking what you're gonna do now I know you're gonna make a splash And find you a sweetheart to treat you so kind Invite her to dinner and kiss her goodnight What I couldn't teach you, you will realize She's the only thing that matters Although he's a bastard, make your papa proud Your a fine young man and I got no doubt That you're gonna do this better Cause you are your mother's child She had you for a while But now that you're grown, may you never be on your own Well now that you're grown, may you never be on your own
