I don't want you growing up to be me
Giving everything to chase my dreams
You don't have to worry yet
I can hold you close
When she throws away your teenage heart
When you passed the test but crashed the car
Big boys ought to cry sometimes
It's okay if you do
If you need me, I'm here
Just gonna love you the best that I can
And if you call me 4 AM
I'll be there, I'll be right there
So go and take this world apart
'Cause I know you'll do it with your mama's heart
And all I that I ask is don't grow up to be me
Grow up to be you
I'll know that I'll catch you stealing liquor from me
Cause I remember doing the same at 16
Wake you on the bathroom floor
Make sure you're alright
'Cause when you need me, I'm here
When you get in trouble I'll steer you clear
And when you call me for a lift home
I'll be there, I'll be right there
So go and take this world apart
'Cause I know you'll do it with your mama's heart
And all I that I ask is don't grow up to be me
Grow up to be you
If you get lost among the stars
Don't forget you've always got your mama's heart
And I don't wanna push you
Whatever you do, grow up to be you
Now there's a reason and a rhyme for most things
But you should try to find your own in everything
And take your time, there's no rush to grow up
So go and take this world apart
'Cause I know you'll do it with your mama's heart
And all I that I ask is don't grow up to be me
Grow up to be you
If you get lost among the stars
Don't forget you've always got your mama's heart
And I don't wanna push you
Whatever you do, grow up to be you
No, I don't want to push you
Whatever you do, grow up to be you
