Clay Aiken – Proud Of Your Boy lyrics
Clay Aiken: Proud of your boy
I'll make you proud of your boy
Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise
Joe Velazquez: I've wasted time
I've wasted me
So say I'm slow for my age
A late bloomer, Okay, I agree
Both: That I've been one rotten kid
Some son, some pride and some joy
But I'll get over these lousin' up
Messin' up, screwin' up times
Joe Velazquez: You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part
Someone's gonna make good
Cross his stupid heart
Make good and finally make you
Proud of your boy
Clay Aiken: Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer
You won't get a fight here, no ma'am
Say I'm a goldbrick, a good-off, no good
But that couldn't be all that I am
Joe Velazquez: Water flows under the bridge
Let it pass, let it go
There's no good reason that you should believe me
Not yet, I know, but
Clay Aiken: Someday and soon
I'll make you proud of your boy
Though I can't make myself taller
Or smatter or handsome or wise
Joe Velazquez: I'll do my best, what else can I do ?
Clay Aiken: Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you
Both: Mom, I will try to
Try hard to make you
Proud of your boy
I'll make you proud of your boy
Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise
Joe Velazquez: I've wasted time
I've wasted me
So say I'm slow for my age
A late bloomer, Okay, I agree
Both: That I've been one rotten kid
Some son, some pride and some joy
But I'll get over these lousin' up
Messin' up, screwin' up times
Joe Velazquez: You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part
Someone's gonna make good
Cross his stupid heart
Make good and finally make you
Proud of your boy
Clay Aiken: Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer
You won't get a fight here, no ma'am
Say I'm a goldbrick, a good-off, no good
But that couldn't be all that I am
Joe Velazquez: Water flows under the bridge
Let it pass, let it go
There's no good reason that you should believe me
Not yet, I know, but
Clay Aiken: Someday and soon
I'll make you proud of your boy
Though I can't make myself taller
Or smatter or handsome or wise
Joe Velazquez: I'll do my best, what else can I do ?
Clay Aiken: Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you
Both: Mom, I will try to
Try hard to make you
Proud of your boy
