Biding my time watching Scotty grow 


Making a castle out of building blocks 
And a cardboard box, that's my boy 
Micky Mouse says it's thirteen o'clock 
Well that's quite a shock, but that's my boy 
In four short years I've gone from rags to riches 
And what I did before that, I don't know 
So let it rain on my windowpane I got my own rainbow 
And we're sitting here shining, 
watching Scotty grow 
Riding on daddy's shoulders off to bed 
Old sleepyhead, that's my boy 
Gotta have a drink of water and a story read 
A teddybear named Fred, that's my boy 
What's that you say momma, come on and keep your feet warm? 
Well save me a place I'll be there in a minute or so 
I think I'll stay right here And say a little prayer before I go 
Me and God are watching Scotty grow 
Me and God are watching Scotty grow
