proud of your boy

[00:28.43] Proud of your boy

[00:31.19] I'll make you proud of your boy

[00:35.18] Believe me, bad as I've been, ma

[00:37.18] You're in for a pleasant surprise

[00:42.43] I've wasted time

[00:44.69] I've wasted me

[00:47.93] So say I'm slow for my age

[00:50.43] A late bloomer, okay, I agree

[00:54.68] That I've been one rotten kid

[00:57.93] Some son, some pride and some joy

[01:01.19] But I'll get over these lousin' up

[01:03.69] Messin' up, screwin' up times

[01:08.18] You'll see, ma, now comes the better part

[01:11.69] Someone's gonna make good cross his stupid heart

[01:14.69] Make good and finally make you

[01:17.69] Proud of your boy

[01:25.93] Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer

[01:28.93] You won't get a fight here, no, ma'am

[01:31.94] Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good

[01:35.18] But that couldn't be all that I am

[01:38.18] Water flows under the bridge, let it pass

[01:41.19] Let it go

[01:44.94] There's no good reason that you should believe me, not yet

[01:48.18] I know, but

[01:51.68] Someday and soon

[01:54.69] I'll make you proud of your boy

[01:58.43] Though I can't make myself taller

[02:00.93] Or smarter or handsome or wise

[02:05.18] I'll do my best, what else can I do?

[02:08.43] Since I wasn't born perfect like dad or you

[02:13.18] Mom, I will try to try hard to make you

[02:22.19] Proud of your boy
