Aaron Lewis - Granddaddy's Gun lyrics

rate me

It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nails

And it's worth a lot of money

And it damn sure ain't for sale

The good lord only knows all the stories it could tell

My Granddaddy's gun

He bought it new out of the sears and robuck catalog

And it shot a many a shells over the back of an old bird dog

And it backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off

Granddaddy's gun.

Chorus:

It's just an old double barrel twelve

The stock is cracked and it kick's like hell

It wouldn't mean what mean's to me to no one

Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder

A guns like a woman son it's all how you hold her

He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt

And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson

My Granddaddy's Gun

That old man gave it to me on the day I turned thirteen

With a half shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean

I keep a picture in the case of that sweet old man and me

And Granddaddy's gun

Chorus:

It's just an old double barrel twelve

The stock was cracked and it kick's like hell

It wouldn't mean what mean's to me to no one

Cause I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder

A guns like a woman son it's all how you hold her

He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt

And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson

My Granddaddy's Gun

There's a long beard hanging on the livin' room wall

That I got with a box call and Granddaddy's gun

There's a beat up sign out there on forty nine

That me and billy joe shot up one night

With granddaddy's gun

It sets above the mantel on a couple rusty nails

It ain't worth a lot of money but it damn sure ain't for sale
