My Little Man

[Verse 1]
Don't you know I love you more than life itself?
Don't you know that you're my pride?
And I would not have you walking through this world
Without me by your side

[Chorus]
Go to sleep, my little man
Don't you weep, my little man

[Verse 2]
I'd like to keep you with me all your life
But I know I can't do that
So I must try teaching you wrong from right
To keep the vultures from your back

[Chorus]
Go to sleep, my little man
Don't you weep, my little man

[Verse 3]
And when you're dreaming
You can talk to angels
So wipe the tears from your eyes
And if there's demon
That try to steal your breath away
You can't believe that, know
My spirit will be standing by your side

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
You saved me, you gave me
The greatest gift of all
Believe me, believe me
There ain't no mountain that's too tall

[Verse 4]
I would gladly carry your cross for you
To take your pain away
But what I can't carry is my love for you
Beyond my dying day

[Chorus]
So be strong, my little man
When I'm gone, my little man
You got to be my little man
So don't you weep, my little man
Go to sleep, my little man
Don't you weep, my little man
You got to be my little man
So don't you weep, my little man
Go to sleep, my little man
