The other day I walked out on the street I happened to see*
A pretty young woman a little bitty boy and he looked back at me
See the big man cry mama that's what I heard him say
See the big man cry mama he looks like his heart will break
I followed them to a pet shop window
The little boy stopped to see
He looked up at her said if I had a daddy he'd buy that puppy for me
See the big man cry mama that's what I heard him say
See the big man cry mama he looks like his heart will break
I wanted to tell him I was his dad and he sure had a pretty mom
But the judge had said I could never see them for the things I've said and done
See the big man cry mama that's what I heard him say
See the big man cry mama he looks like his heart will break
[guitar solo]
Son, as you'll grow older you'll find someone who is dear
Just stick by her take care of her and you will never hear
See the big man cry mama that's what I heard him say
See the big man cry mama he looks like his heart will break
