Proud Of Your Boy sing and play along

Proud of your boy,

I'll make you proud of your boy.

Believe me, bad as I've been,

Ma, you're in for a pleasant surprise.

I've wasted time,

I've wasted me.

So say I'm slow for my age,

a late bloomer, okay, I agree that I've been one rotten kid.

Some son, some pride and some joy!

But I'll get over these lousin'up,

messin'up, screwin'up times.

You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part.

Someone's gonna make good, cross his stupid heart...

Make good and finally make you

proud of your boy!

Tell me that I've been a louse and a loafer,

you won't get a fight here,

no ma'am.

Say I'm a goldbrick, a goofoff,

no good, but that couldn't be all that I am.

Water flows under the bridge, let it pass,

let it go.

There's no good reason that you should believe me,

not yet, I know, but...

Someday and soon,

I'll make you proud of your boy.

Though I can't make myself taller or smarter or handsome or wise.

I'll do my best, what else can I do?

Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you,

Mom, I will try to, try hard to make you proud of your boy!
