Boys in the Street

When I was younger

My daddy told me I would never

Never amount to nothing special

He'd come at me from every angleHe'd say You're the last thing I wanted the last thing I need

How am I gonna answer when my friends tell me

My son was kissing boys in the street

My son was kissing boys in the streetHe'd try to change me

Say I'm embarrassing my country

How could I do this to my family

Do I wanna grow up being lonelyHe'd say We've worked for our money we've put you in school

Is this how you repay us? Do you think this is cool?

My son, stop kissing boys in the street

My son, stop kissing boys in the streetNow that I'm older

My daddy's hearts a little warmer

But he still wont hug me like my brother

And he still wont kiss me like my motherHe said, "You're a part of this family, I made you myself

But the way that you act isn't good for your health

My son, stop kissing boys in the street

My son, stop kissing boys in the streetOoooooooOhhhhhhhMy daddy's dying

And he's finally realized I'm not lying

We sit in silence but we're smiling

Because for once we are not fightingHe'd say, "There was no way of knowing 'cause all I was taught

Is men only love women, but now I'm not sure

My son, keep kissing boys in the street

My son, keep kissing boys in the street

When I'm gone keep kissing boys in the street"
