Justin Moore - Grandpa lyrics

rate me

You stood on that bank when I got baptized

<br />Gave me a thirty thirty when I turned nine

<br />At sixteen you caught me drinking out in the barn

<br />I could hear you cheering when we won state

<br />And you held my hand at Grandma's grave

<br />And I'll always be thankful you never sold the farm

<br />

<br />Chorus:

<br />Grandpa you stood so tall

<br />Chewed that Red Man, wore overalls

<br />You were the same man on Sunday morning as Saturday night

<br />Five foot six to the top of your hat

<br />But when you talked bout the war thought you were Superman

<br />American born simple man with a southern drawl

<br />You walk the walk, you talk the talke, Grandpa

<br />

<br />You still swear Roosevelt was the best

<br />That a home grown tomato tastes better than the rest

<br />And fifty years goes too fast with a woman you love

<br />Well this life I've chose is gettin' busy now

<br />And i know where to go when i need to slow down

<br />And when I walk up on your front porch

<br />It's just like I'm still young

<br />

<br />Chorus:

<br />Grandpa you stood so tall

<br />Chewed that Red Man, wore overalls

<br />You were the same man on Sunday morning as Saturday night

<br />Five foot six to the top of your hat

<br />But when you talked bout the war thought you were Superman

<br />American born simple man with a southern drawl

<br />You walk the walk, you talk the talke, Grandpa

<br />

<br />Yeah American born a dirt road man with that slow southern drawl

<br />Now keep walkin' the walk and talkin' the talk Grandpa<br /><br />
