Buy A Boy A Baseball (Live)

Buy a boy a baseball, get him outside

Get his hands dirty, take a little time

Give a boy a Bible, teach him how to pray

Thank the good Lord at the end of the day

Wake him up early, teach him how to work

Spend his own money, show him what it's worth, yeah

He's gonna know it all, he'll slip and he'll fall

He'll pick himself up, amen

Yes, sir, yes, ma'am, show him how to be a man

So one of these days he can

Buy a girl flowers, take her to a show

Treat her like a lady and maybe down the road

Watch her and her mama making all the plans
