grandpa

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 tomato 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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
