Boy

[Verse 1]

I called you a sweet boy

You're nothing but weak, boy

And you're nothing but meek, boy

I called you a love, boy

You're all the above, boy

You're just not enough, boy

[Pre-Chorus]

And I blame your mother

And I blame your father

Since you have a brother

I'll blame his mother

[Chorus]

I wish I never laid my eyes

On that pretty face of yours

You have a heart that only a mother could love

[Verse 2]

I wanted a tree, boy

But you gave me a leaf, boy

It's nothing to me, boy

I gave you the world, boy

Without a return, boy

And now I'm just hurt, boy

[Pre-Chorus]

And I'll blame your mother

And I'll blame your father

Now I'm left to wonder

What dragged me under

[Chorus]

I wish I never laid my eyes

On that pretty face of yours

You have a heart that only a mother could love

And I wish I never laid my eyes on you

You have a broken heart that I could never touch

[Bridge]

I planted a seed, boy

Now you watch it grow, boy

Long after I leave, boy

Long after I leave

[Pre-Chorus]

I blame your mother

And I blame your father

Since you have a brother

I'll blame his mother

[Chorus]

I wish I never laid my eyes

On that pretty face of yours

You have a heart that only a mother could love

And I wish I never laid my eyes on you

You have a broken heart that I could never touch

[Outro]

I gave you the world, boy

Without a return, boy

Now I'm just hurt, boy
