Brad Paisley - Anything Like Me (Live on Letterman)

I remember saying, I don't care either way. Just as long as he or she is healthy, I'm OK. Then the doctor pointed to the corner of the screen and said, you see that thing right there? Well, you know what that means. I started wondering who he was going to be. And I thought, heaven help us if he's anything like me. He'll probably climb a tree too tall and ride his bike too fast. He'll end up every summer wearing something in a cast. He's going to throw a ball and break some glass in a window down the street. He's going to get in trouble. He's going to get in fights. I'm going to lose my temper and some sleep. It's safe to say that I'm going to get my payback if he's anything like me. I can see him right now, knees all skinned up with a magnifying glass trying to melt a talker truck. Won't he be a sight with his football helmet? That'll be his first love till his first love comes along. He'll get his heart broke by the time he's in his teens. And heaven help him if he's anything like me. He'll probably stay out too late and drive his car too fast. Get a speeding ticket that he'll pay for on grass. He's going to get caught skipping class. Be grounded for a week. He's going to get in trouble. He's going to get in fights. I'm going to lose my temper and some sleep. It's safe to say that I'm going to get my payback if he's anything like me. But he's going to love me. The years are going to fly by. I already dread the day. He's going to hug his mama. He's going to shake my hand. He's going to act like he can't wait to leave. And as he drives out, he'll cry his eyes out if he's anything like me. There's worse folks to be like. Oh, he'll be all right if he's anything like me.
