Leland Martin - Simply Traditional lyrics

rate me

His daddy drives a big rig

Down a road that never ends

And he'll grow up and drive that truck

Just like him

At six years old she'll pretend

She's goin' off to work

Till that day comes

When just like mom

She'll be come a nurse

Its Simply Traditional

Its unconditional

With no chance for a change of mind

We just keep passin' it on down the line

And even though its hard

To fill their shoes

Its a way of life they gladly choose

And you can call it predictable

But its Simply Traditional

While watching his young son

Till the old farm with a plow

He remembers when

His dad taught him

Standing there and feeling proud

Workin' on a hand made quilt

She's eighty-five years old

Now watch her smile

While her grandchild

Wants to learn to sew

Its Simply Traditional

Its unconditional

With no chance for a change of mind

We just keep passin' it on down the line

And even though its hard

To fill their shoes

Its a way of life they gladly choose

And you can call it predictable

But its Simply Traditional

Now me I learned to sing the way

That all my heroes sang

I'm stickin' to my country roots

And if it ain't the latest thing

(spoken) Well thats ok

Its Simply Traditional

Its unconditional

With no chance for a change of mind

I'll just keep passin' it on down the line

And even though its hard

To fill their shoes

Its a way of life I gladly choose

And you can call it predictable

But I'm Simply Traditional

Yeah you can call it predictable

But I'm Simply Traditional
