Watching You Rodney Atkins
drivin through t[D]own just my boy and me, with a happy meal and his booster seat
[Cadd9]knowin that he couldnt have his toy t[G]ill his nuggets were gone[D]
A g[D]reen traffic light turned straight to red, I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath
His f[Cadd9]ries went a flyin' and his oran[G]ge drink covered his lap[D]
Well, then my [G]4 year old said a [A]4-letter word,
it [D]started with "[A]s" and [G]I was concerned,
[G]So I said son, now where'd you learn, to t[Em]alk li[G]ke th[A]at.
CHORUS
He said Ive been [D]watchin' you dad ain't that cool,
I'm your [A]buckaroo I wanna be like you
And eat [G]all my food, and grow as tall as [A]you are.
We got c[D]owboy boots and camo pants yea we're [A]just alike hey aint we dad
G A G A G A(hold)
I wanna do everything you do(hold),
So I've been watchin [D]you
D--A--G--A
[D]We got back home and I went to the barn, I bowed my head and I prayed real hard,
Said [Cadd9]Lord please help me h[G]elp my stupid s[D]elf
[D]Just this side of bedtime later that night, turning on my son's scooby doo night light
He [Cadd9]crawled out of bed and he [G]got down on his [D]knees
He closed [G]his little eyes, folded [A]his little hands,
[D]Spoke to [A]God like he was [G]talkin' to a friend,
[G]And I said son, now where'd you learn, to [Em]pray l[G]ike t[A]hat
CHORUS
He said I been [D]watchin you dad ain't that cool,
Im your [A]buckaroo I wanna be like you,
And eat [G]all my food, and grow as tall as [A]you are,
We like [D]fixin' things and holdin' mama's hand
yea we're [A]just alike hey ain't we dad,
G A G A G A(hold)
I wanna do, everything you do(hold),
So I've been watchin' [D]you
With [C]tears in my eyes I [G]wrapped him in a hug
Said my [D]little bear is growin' up
And [C]he said but when I'm [G]big, I'll [A]still know what to do.
CHORUS
Cause I've been [D]watchin' you dad aint that cool
I'm your [A]buckaroo I wanna be like you,
And eat [G]all my food, and grow as tall as [A]you are
By then [D]I'll be strong as superman,
We'll be [A]just alike hey won't we dad,
G A G A G A(hold)
When I can do, everything you do(hold),
Cause I've been watchin' [D]you (start fading out here)
D---A--G---A
hey yea
D---A--G---A---D
uh huh (end fade)
