The Man He Sees in Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He's Spiderman in Walmart boots and a camouflage hat With a baby blue Zebco that gets hung up every cast He thinks he's learning fishing from the man that taught Bill Dance And I think as I untangle it and put it in his hands [Chorus] I hope he never finds out that I didn't hang the moon And I've never scared a monster out the closet in his room One day between him leavin' home and drivin' on my knee Maybe I'll finally be, the man he sees in me [Verse 2] He waves that blanket like the checkered flag pullin' offa the interstate With a Happy Meal cup held high like I won the big race When we get home, his mind is blown when I untie his shoes And he smiles and says, "Daddy, there ain't nothin' you can't do" [Chorus] Well, I hope he never finds out that I didn't hang the moon And I've never scared a monster out the closet of his room Some day between him leavin' home and drivin' on my knee But maybe I'll finally be, the man he sees in me [Instrumental] [Refrain] Well, I know he's gonna find out that I didn't hang the moon And there never was a monster in the closet of his room Some day when he's drivin' home with his son on his knee Well, I hope he's tryna be, the man he sees in me [Outro] The man he sees in me The man he sees in me
