So say I'm slow for my age

A late bloomer, Okay, I agree

That I've been one rotten kid

Someone's gonna make good 
                           Em 
Cross his stupid heart 
                        E7               D6 
Make good and finally make you 
A7sus4          D      A7       D6 
Proud of your boy 

Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer 
You won't get a fight here, no ma'am 
Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good 
But that couldn't be all that I am 

Water flows under the bridge 
Let it pass, let it go 
There's no good reason that you should believe me 
Not yet, I know, but 

Someday and soon 
I'll make you proud of your boy 
Though I can't make myself taller 
Or smarter or handsome or wise 

I'll do my best, what else can I do ? 
Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you 
Mom, I will try to 
Try hard to make you 
Proud of your boy
