There he sits with
A pen and a yellow pad
What a handsome lad
That's my boy

BRLFQ spells mom and dad
Well, that ain't too bad
'Cause that's my boy

Well, you can have your
TV and you nightclubs
And you can have your
Drive in picture show

I'll stay here
With my little man near
We'll listen to the radio
Biding my time and
Watching Scotty grow

Making a castle
Out of building blocks
And a cardboard box
That's my boy

Mickey Mouse says
It's thirteen o'clock
Well, that's quite a shock
That's my boy

In four short years
I've gone from rags to riches
And what I did before that
I don't know

So let it rain on my windowpane
I got my own rainbow
And we're sitting here shining
Watching Scotty grow

Riding on daddy's
Shoulders off to bed
Old sleepy head
That's my boy

Gotta have a drink of water
And a story read
A teddy bear named Fred
That's my boy

What's that you say, mama
Come on and keep you feet warm
Well, save me a place
I'll be there in a minute or so

I'll think I'll stay right here
And say a little prayer before I go
Me and God watching Scotty grow

Me and God watching Scotty grow
