?A LITTLE BIT OF ME IN YOU?

Words & Music by Forrest C. (?Frosty?) Lawson
(Verse 1)
I remember like it happened just yesterday-
On a foggy Christmas Eve,
I can still hear my Mama cryin? on the porch,
While she?s watching Daddy leave,
(BV-1)
I was nine years old and didn?t understand,
What goes on between and woman and a man.
So now I run away from love-every chance I can.
Before he left he told me-
(Chorus 1)
You?re a hot little pistol, my son-of-a-gun,
I never shot blanks when I had my fun,
I was just seventeen when I had you son,
And in the end when there?s nothing left but my empty shoes,
There will always be A LITTLE BIT OF ME IN YOU.

(Verse 2)
I?d like to find a girl who wants to settle down,
And have a son to share my name.
But it took a long time for me to figure out-
That me and Dad were just the same.
(BV-2)
The answer?s on the wall it?s in black and white,
I?m living in the shadow of a losing fight.
So I gotta keep on tryin?, till I get it right.
My Daddy used to tell me-
(Chorus 2)
You?re a hot little pistol, my son-of-a-gun,
I never shot blanks when I had my fun,
I was just seventeen when I had you son,
And in the end when there?s nothing left but my empty shoes,
There will always be A LITTLE BIT OF ME IN YOU. (Solo)
(Chorus 3)
You?re a hot little pistol, my son-of-a-gun,
I never shot blanks when I had my fun,
I was just seventeen when I had you son,
And in the end when there?s nothing left but my empty shoes,
There will always be A LITTLE BIT OF ME IN YOU.
