Introduction and “Its a Boy”

Jimmy, Your Mammie’s calling

Don’t go splashing in puddles, son.

Where do they come from?

He’s a man now

Let’s hear it for the wee man.

I’m thinking of the men that never came home

Worry is a mother’s middle name

Every tear drop that falls

We’re not alone

I like the quiet life

Jimmy, your mammie’s calling (reprise)

Let’s hear it for the wee man
(reprise)
