Lyrics
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
He’s close to God,
I’m sure of that
He sits him down,
and they have a chat
He asks for sunshine,
and he agrees
You see, for him,
He’d do anything
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
He is a monkey,
and I’m his tree
And now he’s climbing all over me
Swinging on my vines
dancing on my limbs
His monkey sounds
sound like angel’s hymns
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
He is an angel,
he is an imp
He’s got my big toe,
and his mother’s lips
He gives fishy kisses,
and great big bear hugs
11 kilos of pure love
Then one day he’ll be 17,
feelin' too big for his home
Seems he was just only 3,
oh our children they grow
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
Then one day he’ll be 33,
maybe with a child of his own
Seems he was just 17,
oh how our children they grow
And she’ll ask for sunshine, and he’ll agree
You see for her, he’d do anything
She is her child, the center of his world
He is her father…
My little boy
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
Mhmhmhm
Whohohoho
You watch them grow, then you let 'em go
