Momma's Boy and Daddy's Pride Lyrics

When I was a kid I wasn't

Always a good boy

But momma knew who I was

Said I was a misunderstood boy

Daddy was a trucker always

On the road

But when he'd come home to our humble abode

He'd teach me how to be a man

And I'd promise him I'd do the best I can

Growin' up wasn't always easy

For a boy like me

Didn't have many friends I just

Couldn't let them

My strength was in my mind and not my muscles

Got beat up a lot in playground hustles

My brother and sisters they'd protect me then

Come to think of it I owe a lot to them

And Momma taught how to love andcare Day by day

And daddy taught me all the things

I should know along the way

Lookin' back I'm proud I never did hide

I was momma's boy

And daddy's pride

Never had too much luck with the girls

Throughout the years

Always fell for the wrong ones

and I'd end up in tears

But mom and dad told me son

Be strong and proud

You'll find that girl without any doubt

Sometimes I wonder where the time has gone

I will always remember where I came from

Momma taught me how to love and care Day by day

And daddy taught me all the things I should know along the way

Lookin' back I'm proud I never did hide

That I was momma's boy

And daddy's pride

Now I am a grown man

I'm pushing forty

I don't have any kids

But I'm the proudest uncle I can be

And I was born with a gift

I can write a song

About all the things I did right and wrong

I'm still being taught

By my woman and kin

To always remember where and what I've been

Momma taught how to love and care Day by day

And daddy taught me all the things I should know along the way

I hope they're proud

Of the man I am

And I'll proof everyday and way I can

That Momma taught how to love and care Day by day

And daddy taught me all the things I should know along the way

I'm proud of them and I'll never hide

That I am momma's boy

And daddy's pride

Oh yes I'm still momma's boy

And daddy's pride
