Hey There Son Songtext
Hey there, Son
I can't wait to get to know ya
Can't wait to get to show ya
All the things in this world that you've got coming your way
Let's let your momma rest now, it'll be okay
Hey there, Son
Listen to your teachers
Keep in mind what the preacher
Prayed when he dipped your head in the river
I can't wait to get to know ya
Can't wait to get to show ya
All the things in this world that you've got coming your way
Let's let your momma rest now, it'll be okay
Hey there, Son
Listen to your teachers
Keep in mind what the preacher
Prayed when he dipped your head in the river
I'm loving every moment watching you grow up
You came into the world with a mighty cry
That moment I first held you, I'd never been more alive
Heart open wide
I'm on your side
Hey there, Son
I see the way you look at her
A little house and some furniture
If you need help, don't be too proud to turn to your old man
She's a keeper, how'd you reel that in?
You came into the world with a mighty cry
That moment I first held you, I'd never been more alive
Heart open wide
I'm on your side
Now you know how I felt when I held you in my hands
It is such a joy to see you grow to be this man
I don't mean to bring you down, but time is such a thief
I was going to keep it to myself, but I got some news last week
Hey there, Dad
You were there when I was born with a mighty cry
From that moment you held me on the first day of my life
Our hearts open wide
Now, I'm by your side
Get some rest, now
You're the best, now
Goodbye, Dad
You came into the world with a mighty cry
That moment I first held you, I'd never been more alive
Heart open wide
I'm on your side
Hey there, Son
I see the way you look at her
A little house and some furniture
If you need help, don't be too proud to turn to your old man
She's a keeper, how'd you reel that in?
You came into the world with a mighty cry
That moment I first held you, I'd never been more alive
Heart open wide
I'm on your side
Now you know how I felt when I held you in my hands
It is such a joy to see you grow to be this man
I don't mean to bring you down, but time is such a thief
I was going to keep it to myself, but I got some news last week
Hey there, Dad
You were there when I was born with a mighty cry
From that moment you held me on the first day of my life
Our hearts open wide
Now, I'm by your side
Get some rest, now
You're the best, now
Goodbye, Dad
