He's Just Like Me

[00:19.72] His father's pride, his mother's joy
[00:23.24] The end result of love, a beautiful little boy
[00:28.40] You think he's perfect, and that he'll be
[00:32.48] The answer to the disappointment that you feel in me
[00:37.87] But he's just like me
[00:39.72] You'll never own him
[00:42.23] You won't control him
[00:44.32] He'll never phone
[00:46.51] You civilise him
[00:48.69] And I'll criticise him and along the way
[00:53.51] He'll grow to be a man
[01:01.73] How many mothers
[01:03.27] Gaze on their sons
[01:05.75] And hope with all their heart
[01:07.33] That he's gonna be the one
[01:10.12] Who'll never roam and never stray
[01:14.28] Who'll understand women better than his daddy does
[01:17.60] But all I've got to say is
[01:19.60] He's just like me
[01:22.13] You'll never own him
[01:23.66] You won't control him
[01:25.86] He'll never phone
[01:28.59] You civilise him
[01:30.72] And he'll criticise him and along the way
[01:35.68] He'll grow to be a man
[01:42.98] And then there'll come a time
[01:44.86] With tears and eyes all red when
[01:47.73] His girl will say, "I blame his mother"
[01:50.13] I'll say, "No you blame me instead"
[01:51.84] 'Cause he's just like me
[01:53.77] You'll never own him
[01:56.25] You won't control him
[01:58.69] He'll never phone
[02:00.88] She civilised him
[02:02.93] And I criticised him and along the way
[02:07.36] He grew to be your man
[02:15.60] He's just like me (he's just like me)
[02:17.37] You'll never own him (you'll never own him)
[02:19.88] You won't control him (you won't control him)
[02:22.01] He'll never phone (he'll never ever phone)
[02:24.47] You civilise him (you civilise him)
[02:26.60] And I'll criticise him and along the way (I'll criticise him)
[02:31.95] He'll grow to be a man
[02:37.84]
