Watching Scotty Grow lyrics

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 your 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!

But 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

Got to have a drink of water and a story read

A teddy bear named Fred

That's my boy

What's that you say, momma

"Come on and keep your 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 are watching Scotty grow

Me and God are watching Scotty grow
