You was a baby like I was once Crying in the early morning You was born in a manger Lord Reid Memorial is where I was born They wrapped You in swaddling clothes Me they dressed in baby blue Well I was twelve years old in the meeting house I was listening the the old men pray I was trying hard to figure out What it was that they was trying to say And 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 And did they tell You stories about 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 Was You a boy like me I grew up around Indiana You grew up around Galilee If I really do grow up Well I want to grow up and be just like You Did You wrestle with a dog Did You lick his nose Did You play beneath the spray of a water hose Did You ever make angels in the winter snow And did they tell You stories about 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 Did You ever get scared playing hide and seek Did You try not to cry when You scraped Your knee Did You ever skip rocks across a quiet creek And did they tell You stories about 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 And I really may just grow up and be like You some day
