Karaoké Man of the House Corey Kent

Had to grow up before

I started shavin'

More worried about mama than runnin' and playin' outside

She didn't sleep at night

I guess neither did I

Don't know how she did what she did but she did it

Knew someone was missin' but for her I hid it

She had enough on her plate so I tried to take his place

Be strong when you ain't and hold on when you can't

She won't tell you but she needs you and you can't let her down

So hide those shakin' hands

Be a rock when you feel like sand

It turns out all I was back then is all that I am now

Just a boy tryin' to be the man of the house

Someone new shows up with some flowers

They go out for a couple of hours

Home alone's fun for any other kid but I couldn't watch her go through it again

Tryin' to fill shoes that ain't my size

But the world don't give a damn about the age of the dog in the fight

So be strong when you ain't and hold on when you can't

She can't tell you but she needs you and you can't let her down

Hide those shakin' hands

Be a rock when you feel like sand

It turns out all I was back then is all that I am now

Just a boy tryin' to be the man of the house

Just a boy tryin' to be the man of the house

Married my girl and we had a few babies

Tryin' to give them the childhood life never gave me

Know they probably can't tell that I'm still tellin' myself

Be strong when you ain't and hold on when you can't

They can't tell you but they need you and you can't let 'em down

So hide those shakin' hands

Be a rock when you feel like sand

It turns out all I was back then is all that I am now

Just a boy tryin' to be the man of the house

Just a boy tryin' to be the man of the house

Still a boy tryin' to be the man of the house
