Raising You

(album: Bootheel 2021 - 2021)

I heard everybody say it's the hardest thing to do
You'll finally have a real idea how much your folks loved you
Oh but I never knew I'd fall
So head over heels for something so small

Maybe it's in your eyes
Reminds me of meeting your Mom the first time
How quickly then I fell
How I didn't care if everybody could tell

Time will fly
So try and enjoy the ride
I pray your worries are few
I'll do the best that I can do
Raising, raising, raising you

I know there are times you and I will disagree
But always know your best is all I ever hope you'll be
And no matter win or lose
I'll always be there till my days are through

Time will fly
So try and enjoy the ride
I pray your worries are few
I'll do the best that I can do
Raising, raising, raising you

I'll make mistakes, but I won't lose faith
Someday will come when I give you away
Yeah I'll give you away

Time will fly
So try and enjoy the ride
I pray your worries are few
I'll do the best that I can do
Raising, raising, raising you
Raising you
Do the best that I can do
Raising you
Raising, raising, raising you
