I still remember that very first day
You ran up smilin’ and stole me away
Didn’t take long to see it was true
I wasn’t just meetin’ your mom — I was meetin’ you
Now it’s Legos on the table, ketchup on your shirt
Baseball games and scraped-up dirt
You call me your buddy, your ride or die
And I’d give the world just to hear you say “hi”
Lukey boy, you light up my life
With your car seat songs and your questions at night
You’re five years old, but you talk like ten
Teachin’ me things again and again
I ain’t your blood, but I’m proud to be
Whatever you need, you got all of me
Yeah, I thank the Lord for the joy and noise
That came with lovin’ my Lukey boy
We hit that drive-thru, you know what you like
Plain little burger, just ketchup, no fries
You laugh so hard it echoes my soul
Like you fixed a piece I didn’t know was broke
I’ve watched you grow, I’ve watched you shine
Seen your little heart beat bigger than mine
You’re wild and kind, strong and sweet
And I hope someday you’ll say that about me
Lukey boy, you light up my life
With your car seat songs and your questions at night
You’re five years old, but you talk like ten
Teachin’ me things again and again
I ain’t your blood, but I’m proud to be
Whatever you need, you got all of me
Yeah, I thank the Lord for the joy and noise
That came with lovin’ my Lukey boy
And when you grow up, chase your dream
I’ll be right here, your biggest team
From Legos to life, I’ll cheer you through
’Cause no one makes me prouder than you
Lukey boy, my heart, my pride
You turned this truck into a magic ride
You’re five years old, but you feel like home
And I’ll love you forever, even when you’re grown
I ain’t your blood, but you’re my own
You’re the best part of this love I’ve known
Yeah, I thank the stars for the noise and joy
That came with lovin’ my Lukey boy
[Outro]
Yeah, you’re my Lukey boy…
Always will be, always were.
