We named you after my brother, cuz he couldn't hang around 
But i'll bet he's on the shoulders of an angel, laughing and singing right now 
He stole my heart, and now he's given it to you 
I always knew you'd be the only one, that he'd give my heart to

You are my boy, you are my blood, you are my son

With ten fingers and ten toes, and your momma's button nose
