The name of the song is "Watching You" by Rodney Atkins. Awesome, awesome song. Here’s the lyrics for ya.

Watching You

driving through town
just my boy and me
with a happy meal
in his booster seat
knowing that he couldn’t have the toy
till his nuggets were gone

a green traffic light
turned straight to red
i hit my breaks
and mumbled under my breath
his fries went a flyin’
and his orange drink covered his lap

well then my four year old
said a four letter word
it started with “s”
and i was concerned
so i said son
now where’d you learn to talk like that?

he said i’ve been watching you
dad, ain’t that cool?
i’m your buckaroo
i wanna be like you
and eat all my food
and grow as tall as you are

we got cowboy boots
and camo pants
yeah we’re just alike
hey, ain’t we dad?
i wanna do everything you do
so i’ve been watching you

we got back home
and i went to the barn
i bowed my head
and i prayed real hard
said Lord please help me
help my stupid self

the next time at bedtime
later that night
turning on my son’s
scooby doo night light
he crawled out of bed
and he got down on his knees

he closed his little eyes
folded his little hands
spoke to God
like he was talking to a friend
and i said son
where’d you lean to pray like that?

he said i’ve been watching you
dad, ain’t that cool?
i’m your buckaroo
i wanna be like you
and eat all my food
and grow as tall as you are

we like fixin thangs
and holdin’ momma’s hand
yeah we’re just alike
hey, ain’t we dad?
i wanna do everything you do
so i’ve been watching you

with tears in my eyes
i wrapped him in a hug
said my little bear
is growing up
and he said but when i’m big
i’ll still know what to do

cause i’ve been watching you
dad, ain’t that cool?
i’m your buckaroo
i wanna be like you
and eat all my food
and grow as tall as you are

then i’ll be strong as superman
we’ll be just alike
hey, won’t we dad?
when i can do
everything you do
cause i’ve been watching you

The song is called Watching You by Rodney Atkins

Drivin’ through town just my boy and me
With a “Happy Meal” in his booster seat
Knowin’ that he couldn’t have the toy ‘til his nuggets were gone.
A green traffic light turned straight to red
I hit my brakes and mumbled under my breath.
His fries went a flyin’, and his orange drink covered his lap
Well, then my 4 year old said a 4 letter word
It started with “S” and I was concerned
So I said, “Son, now where’d you learn to talk like that?”

Chorus:
He said, I’ve been watching you, dad ain’t that kool?
I’m your buckaroo, I want to be like you.
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.
We got cowboy boots and camo pants
Yeah, we’re just alike, hey, ain’t we dad
I want to do everything you do.
So I’ve been watching you.

We got back home and I went to the barn
I bowed my head and I prayed real hard
Said, “Lord, please help me help my stupid self.”
Just this side of bedtime later that night
Turnin’ on my son’s Scooby-doo nightlight.
He crawled out of bed and he got down on his knees.
He closed his little eyes, folded his little hands
Spoke to God like he was talkin’ to a friend.
And I said, “Son, now where’d you learn to pray like that?”

Chorus:
He said, I’ve been watching you, dad ain’t that kool?
I’m your buckaroo; I want to be like you.
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.
We like fixin’ things and holding moma’s hand
Yeah, we’re just alike, hey, ain’t we dad.
I want to do everything you do; so I’ve been watching you.

With tears in my eyes I wrapped him in a hug.
Said, “My little bear is growin’ up.”
And he said, “But when I’m big I’ll still know what to do.”

Chorus:
‘cause I’ve been watching you, dad ain’t that kool?
I’m your buckaroo; I want to be like you.
And eat all my food and grow as tall as you are.
By then I’ll be strong as superman
We’ll be just alike, hey, won’t we dad
When I can do everything you do.
‘cause I’ve been watchin’ you.
