[00:33.06] Grandpa said to cousin Jed
[00:36.99] Sitting on the porch,
[00:41.02] "I won't retire
[00:43.39] But I might retread."
[00:49.08] Seems like that guy singin' this song
[00:52.95] Been doing it for a long time
[00:56.83] Is there anything he knows
[01:00.25] That he ain't said?
[01:06.00] Sing a song for freedom
[01:10.13] Sing a song for love
[01:14.37] Sing a song for depressed angels
[01:18.09] Falling from above.
[01:55.47] Grandpa held the paper
[01:58.99] Pretending he could see
[02:02.87] But he couldn't read
[02:05.04] Without his glasses on
[02:11.92] "How can all those people
[02:15.31] Afford so many things?
[02:19.86] When I was young people wore
[02:22.23] What we had on."
[02:26.34] Mamma said, "A little love and affection
[02:32.23] In everything you do
[02:36.42] Will make the world a better place
[02:40.34] With or without you.
[02:44.62] "A little love and affection
[02:48.61] In everything you do
[03:17.33] Slamming down some late night shots
[03:20.55] The hero and artist compare
[03:25.30] Those envisions and afterthoughts
[03:28.32] For the twenty first century.
[03:33.50] But mostly came up with nothing
[03:36.83] So the truth was never learned
[03:41.21] And the human race just
[03:43.34] Kept rollin' on.
[03:50.11] Rollin' through the fighting
[03:54.12] Rollin' through the religious wars
[03:58.26] Rollin' down the temple walls
[04:01.53] And the churches' exposed sores.
[04:06.45] Rollin' through the fighting
[04:10.68] Through religious wars
[04:14.31] Mostly came up with nothing...
[04:38.87] "Grandpa, here's your glasses;
[04:42.44] You'll see much better now,"
[04:46.20] Said that young girl
[04:47.91] Of Edith and Earl's.
[04:54.97] But Grandpa just kept starin'
[04:58.19] He was lost in some distant thought
[05:02.37] Then he turned and he said
[05:04.03] To that young girl,
[05:11.38] "A little love and affection
[05:15.25] In everything you do
[05:19.37] Will make the world a better place
[05:35.65][05:28.12][05:23.15] With or without you.
[05:32.36] A better place
[05:51.98] Hear that rooster crowin'
[05:55.71] Down on the Double E
[05:59.28] It's a new morning
[06:01.91] Breaking on the green.
[06:08.32] Bouncing off the Towers,
[06:11.79] The sun's heading for the street
[06:16.32] The business meeting
[06:17.80] Window shades are drawn.
[06:24.65] Another morning edition
[06:28.78] Is headed for the porch
[06:32.18] Because Grandma puts down the paper
[06:35.75] Before Grandpa raises his fork.
[06:40.79] A little love and affection
[06:44.72] In every thing you do
[06:49.07] With or without you.
[06:56.93] Hear the rooster crowin'
[07:00.66] Down on the Double E
