Little Boy From Boise
(Lewis Franco & The Missing Cats)
He's my little boy from Boise and boys he sure is noisy
He plays with all his toys he is my little boy from Boise
My name is Texas Red and they say that I'm an outlaw
They say that I spread fear from Texas to Arkansas
But that was long ago before I fled to Idaho
And settled down and had a son and now, well… I dunno
He's my little boy from Boise and boys he sure is noisy
He plays with all his toys he is my little boy from Boise
Back in the good ole days of the bar rooms and the ladies
I didn't change no diapers and I didn't hold no babies
My wild oats I was sowin', my muscles I was flexin'
But now that I'm a daddy I'm a sensitive new-age Texan
He's my little boy from Boise and boys he sure is noisy
He plays with all his toys he is my little boy from Boise
Well I came to work this mornin' to get some peace and quiet
That baby hoots and hollers like he wants to start a riot
And though I'm safe for now my little boy is waitin'
And when I see that sonofagun he won't be meditatin'
He's my little boy from Boise and boys he sure is noisy
He plays with all his toys he is my little boy from Boise
He's my little boy from Boise he ain't been to New Jersey
Though his mom's from Illinois he is my little boy from Boise
