I never once backed down
from a punch
Well, I'd take it square on the
chin
And 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
And I followed your school bus to
town
Well I didn't cry when 'ole 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
Well I'm a grown man, 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
I know one day I'll give you away
And I'm going to stand there and
smile
Cause when I get home and I'm all
alone
Well, I'll sit in your room for
awhile
Well I didn't cry when 'ole 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
When tough little boys grow up to be
Dads
They turn into big babies again.

"Tough little
boys turn into big babies
again". How true this is. I
can still remember the time when my son
was a little boy. He got hurt
while playing hide and seek, and had to
make a trip to the emergency room to get
his nose stitched up. As this tough
little boy sat there while the doctor
stitched him up, guess what the nurses
were doing. They were caring for
'ole Dad who was swerving and weaving as
his rubber legs gave out. They had
to lay Dad down while his tough
little boy was being stitched up. And
yes, Dad was a tough little boy when he
was growing up, but at this time he had definitely
turned into a big baby again.
