| [00:17.31] |
You stood on that bank when I got baptized |
| [00:21.18] |
Gave me a thirty thirty when I turned nine |
| [00:25.36] |
At sixteen you caught me drinking |
| [00:28.72] |
out in the barn |
| [00:33.35] |
I could hear you cheering when we won state |
| [00:37.02] |
And you held my hand at Grandma's grave |
| [00:41.33] |
And I'll always be thankful you never sold the farm |
| [00:49.94] |
Grandpa you stood so tall |
| [00:53.44] |
Chewed that Red Man, wore overalls |
| [00:56.94] |
You were the same man |
| [00:58.37] |
on Sunday morning as Saturday night |
| [01:05.68] |
Five foot six to the top of your hat |
| [01:08.97] |
But when you talked bout the war |
| [01:11.04] |
thought you were Superman |
| [01:13.66] |
American born simple man with a southern drawl |
| [01:20.46] |
You walk the walk, you talk the talke, Grandpa |
| [01:35.69] |
You still swear Roosevelt was the best |
| [01:39.18] |
That a home grown tomato tastes better than the rest |
| [01:43.12] |
And fifty years goes too fast with a woman you love |
| [01:50.98] |
Well this life I've chose is gettin' busy now |
| [01:54.66] |
... |
| [01:55.66] |
And when I walk up on your front porch |
| [02:02.83] |
It's just like I'm still young |
| [02:08.14] |
Grandpa you stood so tall |
| [02:11.32] |
Chewed that Red Man, wore overalls |
| [02:14.88] |
You were the same man |
| [02:16.37] |
on Sunday morning as Saturday night |
| [02:23.30] |
Five foot six to the top of your hat |
| [02:26.73] |
But when you talked bout the war |
| [02:28.73] |
thought you were Superman |
| [02:29.86] |
American born simple man with a southern drawl |
| [02:38.52] |
You walk the walk, you talk the talke |
| [02:42.89] |
Grandpa |
| [02:46.26] |
Yeah American born a dirt road man |
| [02:50.69] |
with that slow southern drawl |
| [02:56.13] |
Now keep walkin' the walk |
| [02:58.43] |
and talkin' the talk Grandpa |
