Grandpa 歌詞

You stood on that bank when i got baptized Gave me a thirty thirty when i turned nine At sixteen you caught me drinkin' out in the barn I could hear you cheerin' when we won state And you held my hand at grandma's grave And i'll always be thankful you never sold the farm Grandpa you stood so tall Chewed that red man wore overalls You were the same man on sunday mornin' as saturday night Five foot six to the top of your hat But when you talked about the war thought you were superman American born simple man with a southern drawl You walk the walk you talk the talk grandpa You still swear roosevelt was the best That a home grown tomater tastes better than the rest And fifty years goes too fast with a woman you love Well this life i've chose is gettin' busy now But i know where to go when i need to slow down And when i walk up on your front porch it's just like i'm still young Grandpa you stood so tall Chewed that red man wore overalls You were the same man on sunday mornin' as saturday night Five foot six to the top of your hat But when you talked about the war thought you were superman American born simple man with a southern drawl You walk the walk you talk the talk grandpa Yeah american born a dirt road man with that slow southern drawl Now keep walkin' the walk and talkin' the talk grandpa
