I Wanna Be Like You
And I'd say, "Daddy, whatcha doin'?
Is there something I can do?"
"Just tell me what to do, I can do it
I wanna be like you."
"You're so big and I'm gettin' bigger-
Just give me a year or two
'Cause I'm your little man
And, if I can, I wanna be like you."
It seems like yesterday
I saw you standin' there.
The hood was up
And your hands were greasy
And there was silver in your hair.
I know I must have been in your way
Every moment I'd spent with you.
I'll always be your little man
And I wanna be like you...
The years have past
And now you're gone
But the memories still remain
And now I have a little one
Who looks at me the same.
I heard her say the other day,
With eyes she got from you,
"I may not be your little man
But I wanna be like you...
I love you Daddy"
