Send "Boy Like Me / Man Like You" ringtone to your cell

You was a baby like I was once

You was cryin' in the early mornin'

You was bornin a stable Lord

Reid Memorial is where I was born

They wrapped You in swaddling clothes

Me they dressed in baby blue

I was twelve years old in the meeting house

Listening to the old men pray

I was tryin' hard to figure out what it was

That they was tryin' to say

There You were in the temple

THey said You weren't old enough

To know the things you knew

Did You grow up hungry

Did You grow up fast?

Did the little girls giggle

When You walked past?

Did You wonder what it was

That made them laugh?

Did they tell You stories 'bout the saints of old?

Stories about their faith?

They say stories like that make a boy grow bold

Stories like that make a man walk straight

You was a boy like I was once

But was You a boy like me?

I grew up around Indiana

You grew up around Galilee

And if I ever really do grow up

Lord I want to grow up and be just like You

Did You wrestle with a dog and lick his nose?

Did You play beneath the spray of a water hose?

Did You ever make angels in the winter snow?

Repeat chorus

Did You ever get scared playing hide and seek?

Did You try no to cry

When You scraped Your knee?

Did You ever skp a rock across a quiet creek?

Repeat chorus

And I really may just grow up

And be like You someday
