| His early mornin’attitude
|
| You have to drag him out of bed
|
| Only frosted flakes will do He gets that from me Yeah, he gets that from me His curly hair and his knobby knees
|
| The way the sun brings those freckles out
|
| Talk and talk never miss a beat
|
| Yeah, he gets that from me He gets that from me He looks at me with those big brown eyes
|
| He’s got me in the palm of his hands
|
| And I swear sometimes

|
| He smiles that little crooked smile
|
| There’s no denying he’s your child
|
| Without him I don’t know what I’d do He gets that from you
|
| Oh, he gets that from you
|
| How he loves your old guitar
|
| Yeah, he's taught himself to play

| He melts my heart
|
| Tells me he loves me every day
|
| And cracks jokes at the perfect time
|
| Makes me laugh when I want to cry
|
| That boy is everything to me He gets that from you
|

|
| Last night I heard him pray
|
| Lord, help me and mama make it through
|
| And tell daddy we’ll be okay
|
| He said he sure misses you
|
| He sure misses you
|
| He really misses you
|
| He gets that from me |
