RODNEY ATKINS IN ASL lyrics : "Watching You"

Driving through town just my boy and me
With a happy meal in his booster seat
Knowing that he couldn't have the toy

Till his nuggets were gone
A green traffic light turned straight to red
I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath

His fries went a flying and his orange drink covered his lap
Well then my four year old said a four letter word
That started with "s" and I was concerned

So I said son now now where did you learn to talk like that

[Chorus one]


He said I've been watching you dad, ain't that cool
I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you

And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are
We got cowboy boots and camo pants
Yeah we're just alike, hey ain't we dad

I wanna do everything you do
So I've been watching you


We got back home and I went to the barn
I bowed my head and I prayed real hard
Said Lord please help me help my stupid self

Then this side of bedtime later that night
Turning on my son's Scooby Doo nightlight
He crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees

He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands
And spoke to God like he was talking to a friend
And I said son now where'd you learn to pray like that


[Chorus two]


He said I've been watching you dad, ain't that cool
I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are

We like fixing things and holding mama's hand
Yeah we're just alike, hey ain't we dad
I wanna do everything you do

So I've been watching you

[Bridge]


With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug
Said my little bear is growing up

He said but when I'm big I'll still know what to do

[Chorus three]


Cause I've been watching you dad, ain't that cool
I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you

And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are
By then I'll be as strong as superman
We'll be just alike, hey won't we dad

When I can do everything you do
Cause I've been watching you
