Lirik Little Boys Don't Keep

When the doctor gave the bay to his mother
The newborn cries were quite for a while
And as she looked down at the boy with an incandescent joy
After everything she couldn't help but smile

And the nurses all agreed he had her features
The tiny little face was still so new
His dimples looked like her but she couldn't say for sure

She turned to me and said i think he looks like you
Cuz when she held the little baby there he stared up at her face
With a look of adoration he was hallowed by her grace
There used to be just one man who could look at her like that
That's how it is he got that from his dad

Well she blinked her eyes and the baby started walking
It's crazy how the years could lead you on
And as the boy became a man he got his father's calloused hands

But they never go too proud for them to hold
Cause When she had a little baby's hand he looked up at her face
With a look of adoration he was hallowed by her grace
There used to be just one man who could look at her like that
That's how it is he got that from his dad

In an empty house we were standing near the doorway
Of the bedroom where she used to tuck him in
And as i smiled she wiped her eyes
I could tell she realized
That This time i reminded her of him
And every night she held her baby
There he stared up at her face
With a look of adoration he was hallowed by her grace
There used to be a little boy who would look at her like that
That's how it is he got that he got that from his dad
That's how it is he got that he got that from his dad
