Lyrics
LIKE I DID We were best friends when you still wore overalls just like I did. I'm watchin' you playin' in a sandbox by the school just like I did. It won't be long before you wake up one day a man just like I did, a man, just like I am. It don't last long, that's why I'm takin' note for us both, for me when you're gone all grown, a man. You're whinin' about havin' to brush your teeth just like I did. Well it's hard to take ya seriously when you're stand there sportin' those cartoon underwear just like I did. It won't be long before you wake up one day a man just like I did; until then, you can stay here with your dad just like I did, a dad, just like I am. It don't last long, that's why I'm takin' note for us both, for me when you're gone It don't last long, that's why I'm takin' note for us both, for me when you're gone all grown, a man.
