Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Eighteen candles on the cake
Big old grin, no sign of break
Boots by the door, keys in hand
He’s got his own way to stand
[Pre-Chorus]
I still see the boy in him
But man, he’s stepping out to win
Heart so strong, eyes so bright
Lord, he’s shining right tonight
[Chorus]
That’s my boy, that’s my pride
Eighteen years right by my side
Stand tall now, go make your mark
You’re a good man, son, from the start
(That’s my boy) (That’s my pride)
[Verse 2]
Learned to fish and patch that fence
Worked hard and made good sense
Took the long road, took it slow
Now he’s ready, let him go
[Pre-Chorus]
I raised him up with calloused hands
Taught him how to be a man
Now I’m smiling through the tears
Watching him outgrow these years
[Chorus]
That’s my boy, that’s my pride
Eighteen years right by my side
Stand tall now, go make your mark
You’re a good man, son, from the start
(That’s my boy) (That’s my pride)
[Bridge]
If the road gets rough and wild
Remember where you learned to smile
This old home will always say
You can come back any day
[Chorus]
That’s my boy, that’s my pride
Eighteen years right by my side
Stand tall now, go make your mark
You’re a good man, son, from the start
(That’s my boy) (That’s my pride)

Style
Country ballad with warm acoustic strums, brushed drums, pedal steel swells, and a steady mid-tempo two-step feel; verse rides close and conversational, pre-chorus lifts with rising harmonies, chorus opens wide with family singalong gang vocals. Vocal stays intimate and weathered, with doubled hooks and a fiddle turnaround into the last chorus. Mix is warm, radio-ready, and porch-lit, country
