Lyrics

You Taught Me How
By Brent Wilson

When I was ten my backyard was Yankee Stadium
You?d toss the ball I?d swing so hard
Make believe that I was rounding the bases
With you cheering in the stands
I?d climb into the bleachers
Put the game ball in your hand

CHORUS
You taught me how
I learned it from you
Don?t ever underestimate
What your example can do
You shouldn?t be surprised to see
A little piece of you in me right now
?Cause you taught me how

Just thirteen I can recall first time I had to shave
Shaving cream all over the wall
You couldn?t even see my face
You laughed and then you cried
And I didn?t understand
You said it?s both scary and funny
To see your boy become a man

CHORUS

Some called you a single mom
I say you?re a homerun
?Cause you were the best mom and best dad to your two sons
That?s exactly what I told him when I met my dad face to face
He said son I?m still your father, don?t you dare walk away (I said?)

CHORUS
