Lyrics of Man Of The House by Chuck Wicks
verse
6 a.m. and Bobby's wakin' up
Rolls outta bed with sleepy eyes
Goes to his sisters' room across the hall
"Hey Daisy, rise and shine"
verse
He pours two bowls full of Cap'n Crunch
Puts a fresh pot of coffee on
He wakes his momma up off the couch
The bus is here, we love you mom
verse
He made the breakfast
He did the dishes
So she wouldn't have to
chorus
Oh, he's only ten
Just comin' of age
He oughta be out playin' ball
And video game
Climbin' trees or on a bike
Just ridin' around
But it's hard to be a kid
When you're the man of the house
verse
It's late at night and Larry King is on
Momma's up on the couch again
Bobby hears 'em all talk about
That awful war his daddy's in
verse
So he runs off straight up to his room
Don't want his momma to see him right now
He climbs in bed and says a silent prayer
Then he cries his little blue eyes out
Don't wanna let her down
chorus
Oh, he's only ten
Just comin' of age
He oughta be out playin' ball
And video games
Climbin' trees or on a bike
Just ridin' around
But it's hard to be a kid
When you're the man of the house
bridge
It's finally Saturday, Bobby gets a phone call
Another world away from home (another world away from home)
He says, "I love you, dad"
Daddy says it right back
Wish I could reach through this phone
And hug you, and Daisy, and your mom
I'm so proud of you son
chorus
He's only ten
Just comin' of age
He oughta be out playin' ball
And video games
Climbin' trees or on a bike
Just ridin' around
But it's hard to be a kid
When you're the man of the house
outro
6 a.m. and Bobby's wakin' up
Rolls outta bed with sleepy eyes
Writer(s): Chuck Wicks, Michael Mobley
