I'm so proud and then so afraid
That the apple didn't fall quite far enough from the tree
I see heartbreak he can't see
Make him turn around and sit up straight
To watch him is all that I can do
I see roadblocks I see mistakes
I see innocence and headstrong
And I look at him and I'm so amazed
That the apple didn't fall quite far enough from the tree
I look at him and I'm so amazed
Stop playing in the pew
I guess I get what my dad got from me
And I'm so proud and then so afraid
And keep his mama and me scared to death
Having fun doing stupid things
'Cause I look at him and I see a teen
Oh I look at him and I see me
Breaking down one day
As he packs up all his things
And a heart full of dreams
To move away
He'll take chances, he'll take dare's
She's wanting me to cross the aisle go, sit over there with him awhile
And I see trouble and I see joy
Like his mama taught him to
I'm so proud and then so afraid
I look at him and I see me
I look at him and I'm so amazed
'Cause I look at him and I see a boy
And I can see him getting stuck on some private property
Yeah I look at him and I see me
Already says when he grows up, he's gonna have a big ole truck
That the apple didn't fall quite far enough from the tree
When he goes out at night you know I'll bet we'll never sleep
