How he got that GI Joe in the church this morning I don?t know but
He ain?t listening to the preacher like his momma told him to
She?s wanting me to cross the isle go sit over there with him awhile
Make him turn around and sit up straight stop playing in the pew
To watch him is all that I can do?
Cause I look at him and I see a boy
And I see trouble and I see joy
I see innocence and headstrong
And a heart full of dreams
And I look at him and I?m so amazed
I?m so proud and then so afraid
That the apple didn?t fall quite far enough from the tree
Yeah I look at him and I see me.
Already says when he grows up he?s gonna have a big ole truck
And I can see him getting stuck on some private property
He?ll take chances he?ll take dares and
Keep his momma and me scared to death
When he goes out at night and oh I bet we?ll never sleep
I guess I get what my dad got from me?
Cause I look at him and I see a teen
Having fun, doing stupid things
I see road blocks I see mistakes
I see heart break he can?t see
I look at him and I?m so amazed
I?m so proud and then so afraid
That the apple didn?t fall quite far enough from the tree
Oh I look at him and I see me.

I look at him and I see me breaking down one day
As he packs up all his things to move away?

I look at him and I?m so amazed
I?m so proud and then so afraid
That the apple didn?t fall quite far enough from the tree
Oh I look at him and I see me.
