My Boy - Elvie Shane
He ain't got my smile that don't bother me a bit
He's got somebody else's eyes I'm seeing myself in
I'm holding on to every moment God knows I've missed a few
The day we met I knew I had some catching up to do
He ain't my blood ain't got my name
But if he did I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my he's my boy
It hit me like a train the first time he called me dad
In a three stick figure crayon picture with all of us holding hands
His mama said I understand if it's too soon for this
I didn't let her finish I took it to the kitchen
And I stuck it on the fridge yeah
He ain't my blood ain't got my name
But if he did I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my he's my boy
He's Saturday morning cartoons
He's Hey can I sleep in your room
He's bigger than the plans I had
He's making me a better man
He ain't my blood ain't got my name
But if he did I'd feel the same
I wasn't there for his first steps
But I ain't missed a ball game yet
And that ain't ever gonna change
I could never walk away
Yeah he's my son and that's my choice
He ain't my blood but he's my he's my boy
Yeah he's my he's my boy
