ain't no son

Lyrics

i've got somethin' to say, i'm scared and so afraid, can you take me as i am?, come what may, our blood is all the same, i am still your little man, he said. you ain't no son to me, you ain't no son to me, 8 lb. baby boy i bounced on my knee, no, you ain't no son of mine, you ain't no son of mine, ah, forget it girls, there ain't no use in tryin', don't expect to get my love for free, and don't blame me, you know this ain't no fun for me, this ain't no fun for me, all boys should be boys, that's how it should be, yeah, you ain't comin' home, nah, you ain't comin' home, 'til you walk a straight line, you'll be out on your own, don't expect to save your soul for free, when you're the one who turned your back on me, aren't you a sight to see?, yeah, you're a sight to see, what you call freedom, makes you look like a freak, yeah, you must get around, 'cause it sure got around, don't you know that i can't show my face in this town?, don't think i'm gonna get you up off your knees, when you're the one who turned your back on me, stranger, stranger on the wall, when the neighbors come to call, i just don't know what to say, so i put you away, this time i won't leave a trace, i'll fill up the empty space, when i put you, i put you away, he said. you ain't no son to me, you ain't no son to me, 8 lb. baby boy i bounced on my knee, no, you ain't no son of mine, you ain't no son of mine, ah, forget it girls, there ain't no use in tryin', don't expect to get my love for free, when you're the one who turned your back on me, don't blame me, yeah don't blame me, don't blame me, shame on me, shame on me, shame on me
