Little Boy, hold it steady
always keep your aim,
your baby brother needs you now
that thing just aren't the same.
Little Boy, it's up to you now.
Daddy can't be there,
too lost in his own grief
too see all you have to bear.
Without you, who'll pick up Sammy
when he wakes, tears in his eyes?
You know he won't go back to sleep
Without his favorite lullaby.
And who'll get up daddy,
When he falls down to the floor?
After, he comes home so drunk
he can't see straight anymore.
Little Boy, wipe away your tears
and put a smile on your face,
the last thing you need right now
is a drunken father on your case.
Little Boy, hold it steady
always keep your aim,
your baby brother needs you now
that things just aren't the same...
