See The Big Man Cry

Charlie Louvin

The other day I walked out on the street
I happened to see
A pretty young woman a little bitty boy
He looked back at me

See the big man cry, mama
That's what I heard him say
See the big man cry, mama
He looks like his heart will break

I followed them to the pup shop window
The little boy stopped to see
He looked up at her said if I had a daddy
He'd buy that puppy for me

See the big man cry, mama
That's what I heard him say
See the big man cry, mama
He looks like his heart will break

I wanted to tell him I was his dad
And he sure had a pretty mom
But the judge had said I could never see them
For the things I've said and done

See the big man cry, mama
That's what I heard him say
See the big man cry, mama
He looks like his heart will break

Son, as you'll grow older
You'll find someone who is dear
Just stick by her take care of her
You will never hear

See the big man cry, mama
That's what I heard him say
See the big man cry, mama
He looks like his heart will break
