Watching Allen Grow

This is a really old song but it has become Paul and Allen's song. Paul even has it on CD now.
He plays it for our son, of course when it gets to the part that says Scotty, daddy turns it down and says Allen. Allen just grins and loves it when his daddy plays it.

It's neat how both our kids have their songs with their daddy. Tawnya has had one for years and even bought Paul the CD one year for his birthday.

They are both lucky kids.

Sometimes we forget a lot of stuff from our childhood but music seems to be one of those things that makes memories. I can still remember my dad singing to me and still know the songs. I even passed them on to my kids.

There he sits with a pen and a yellow pad
What a handsome lad
That's my boy
BRLFQ spells mom and dad
But that ain't too bad
That's my boy
You can have your TV and you nightclubs
And you can have your drive in picture show
I'll stay here with my little man near
We'll listen to the radio
Biding my time andWatching Scotty grow
Making a castle out of building blocks
And a cardboard box
That's my boy
Mickey Mouse says it's thirteen o'clock
Well that's quite a shock!
That's my boy
In four short yearsI've gone from rags to riches
And what I did before that I don't know
So let it rain on my windowpane
I got my own rainbow
And we're sitting here shining
Watching Scotty grow
Riding on daddy's shoulders off to bed
Old sleepy head
That's my boy
Got to have a drink of water and a story read
A teddy bear named Fred
That's my boy
What's that you say momma
Come on and keep your feet warm
Well save me a place
I'll be there in a minute or so
I'll think I'll stay right here
andSay a little prayer before I go
Me and God are Watching Scotty grow
Me and God are Watching Scotty grow...
