Quite a lad, that boy i'd say br Handsome and kind br In his own kind of way br br Too smart to listen br But the first to speak up br Like his own old tradition br Just to see what's what br br A take charge kind of guy br Following his own rules br Silent, but not too shy br Just observant on who's who br br Say one thing br He'll turn it around br Say it again br He'll stand his own ground br br Never worries enough to cause any br stress br Never clear enough to change br Wanting more of what is the best br And the last one to admit any blame br br With no chip on his shoulder br Because he is the chip br Not in the fast lane, just slower br Looking for the piece that just fits br br Definitely not a follower in anybody's br footprints br For he insists on making his own br Never letting anyone cross over his own br fence br Where only himself is able to raom br br Trying to hide his cares and concerns br He will then keep them held inside br By himself he sort's it all out and br learns br If only necessary, will he then confide br br And finally he needs others to recognize br he's a leader br And tells you to stand tall in what you br believe br Never to let anyone see a side that is br weaker br For he believes you live with your own br creed!br br Katherine Perrybr br
