I NEVER ONCE
BACKED DOWN
FROM A PUNCH
WELL I'D TAKE IT
SQUARE ON THE CHIN
WELL I FOUND OUT FAST
A BULLY'S JUST THAT
AND YOU'VE GOT TO
STAND UP TO HIM
SO I DIDN'T CRY
WHEN I GOT
A BLACK EYE
AS BAD AS IT HURT
I JUST GRINNED
BUT WHEN
TOUGH LITTLE BOYS
GROW UP TO BE DADS
THEY TURN INTO
BIG BABIES AGAIN
SCARED ME TO DEATH
WHEN YOU TOOK
YOUR FIRST STEPS
WELL I'D FALL
EVERY TIME
YOU FELL DOWN
AND YOUR FIRST DAY
OF SCHOOL
I CRIED LIKE A FOOL
I FOLLOWED
YOUR SCHOOL BUS
TO TOWN
WELL I DIDN'T CRY
WHEN OLD YELLER DIED
AT LEAST NOT IN FRONT
OF MY FRIENDS
BUT WHEN
TOUGH LITTLE BOYS
GROW UP TO BE DADS
THEY TURN INTO
BIG BABIES AGAIN
4 BAR BREAK
WELL I'M A GROWN MAN
BUT AS STRONG AS I AM
WELL SOMETIMES
IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE
HOW ONE LITTLE GIRL
WITH LITTLE
BLONDE CURLS
CAN TOTALLY
TERRIFY ME
IF YOU WERE TO ASK
MY WIFE
WOULD JUST LAUGH
SHE'D SAY I KNOW ALL
ABOUT MEN
AND HOW
TOUGH LITTLE BOYS
GROW UP TO BE DADS
THEY TURN INTO
BIG BABIES AGAIN
WELL I KNOW ONE DAY
I'LL GIVE YOU AWAY
AND I'M GONNA
STAND THERE
AND SMILE
BUT WHEN I GET HOME
AND I'M ALL ALONE
WELL I'LL SIT
IN YOUR ROOM
FOR AWHILE
WELL I DIDN'T CRY
WHEN OLD YELLER
DIED
AT LEAST NOT IN FRONT
OF MY FRIENDS
THOUGH WHEN TOUGH
LITTLE BOYS
GROW UP TO BE DADS
THEY TURN INTO
BIG BABIES AGAIN
AND WHEN
TOUGH LITTLE BOYS
GROW UP TO BE DADS
THEY TURN INTO
BIG BABIES
AGAIN
