A tiny turned up nose two cheeks just like a rose
So sweet from head to toes that little boy of mine
Two arms that hold me tight two eyes that shine so bright
Two lips that kiss goodnight that little boy of mine

No one will ever know just what his coming has meant
Because I love him so he's something heaven has sent
He's all the world to me he climbs upon my knee
To me he'll always be that little boy of mine

[ steel ]
No one will ever know...

And when he lays his little head upon his pillow so white
I say I pray to the Lord above to guide him safely through the night
And in dreams I see his pretty little face and feel his sweet embrace
Oh believe me no one can take his place
That little boy of mine
