Will Hoge Trying To Be A Man
One night I fell in love with a little girl
And I gave her my whole world
And I knew right then I'd never get it back
And I wonder how I fell for that
Five months later with tears in both her eyes
She handed me those two pink lines
The only test in my whole life,
I didn't fail
I told her we'd be fine but I was scared as hell
Oh my love, I hope it doesn't show
But I'm scared to death of drowning in these things I
don't know
Oh my love, I hope you'll understand
The truth is I'm a boy who's trying to be a man
I got a hand-me-down gold ring to make it right
And I could feel you kick when the judge said kiss the
bride
But your mama and me walked down hand in hand
Soon three against the world
We'd make a stand
But on the day you were born she got called home
And it's the darkest thing my heart has ever known
Doctor said I'm sorry and handed you to me
I looked in your blue eyes and couldn't even speak
To tell you oh my son,I hope it doesn't show
But I'm scared to death of drowning in these things I
don't know
Whoa my son, I hope you'll understand
The truth is I'm a boy that's trying to be a man
Oh your daddy's just a boy who's trying to be a man
