Lyrics
Close your eyes
Have no fear
The monster's gone, he's on the run
And your daddy's here
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It's getting better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Out on the ocean
The ships sail away
I can hardly wait
To see you come of age
I guess we'll just have to be patient
'Cause it's a long way to go
And a hard road home
A long way to go
But in the meantime
Before you cross the street
Take my hand
Life is what happens to you
While you're busy makin' other plans
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Every day in every way
It's getting better and better and better
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
You're my beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy
