every story my grandpa told
I carry with me until I go see him again
that was grandma’s best friend
from Sunday supper up on a hill
to working out in that cornfield and learning how to behave
that’s how I was raised
a Friday night bonfire hanging out in a field,
a couple buddies grab a drink and a and reel
back knows,
up until crows
Sunday up dressing up and to church,
thanks to life’s work
roots deeper a pine,
me story, I’ll mine
every it’s county fair,
people know everywhere catching up,
it’s a small town kind love,
a handshake on top hello
plans tomorrow,
some would be amazed
at how I was raised
a Friday night bonfire hanging out in a field,
a couple buddies grab a drink and a and reel
back knows,
up until crows
Sunday I’ve dressing up and to church,
thanks to life’s work
roots deeper a pine,
me story, I’ll mine
my mom and daddy taught me to be a man and a hand to those in need
don’t be afraid, work hard and will succeed,
it’s how I was raised
a Friday night bonfire hanging out in a field,
a couple buddies grab a drink and a and reel
back knows,
and up until crows
Sunday up dressing up and to church,
thanks to life’s work
roots deeper a pine,
me story, I’ll mine
I’ll mine
I’ll mine,
I’ll mine
I’ll mine
