"Tough Little Boys" is the first single released from Gary Allan's 2003 album "See If I Care". The song reached Number One on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot Country Songs chart in October of 2003, becoming Allan's second straight No. 1 single.

The song is about a father who has always imagined himself to be tough, even as a child. However, upon looking at his own child, the father starts to find himself worrying for the child's safety, admitting that "When tough little boys grow up to be dads / They turn into big babies again".
