Grandpa
Tell me 'bout the good old days.
Sometimes it feels like
This world's gone crazy.
Grandpa, take me back to yesterday,
Where the line between right and wrong
Didn't seem so hazy.

Did lovers really fall in love to stay
Stand beside each other come what may
was a promise really something people kept,
Not just something they would say
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away
Whoa oh Grandpa,
Tell me 'bout the good old days.

musical interlude

Grandpa
Everything is changing fast.
We call it progress,
But I just don't know.
And Grandpa, let's wander back into the past,
And paint me a picture of long ago.

Did lovers really fall in love to stay
Stand beside each other come what may
Was a promise really something people kept,
Not just something they would say and then forget
Did families really bow their heads to pray
Did daddies really never go away
Whoa oh Grandpa,
Tell me 'bout the good old days.

Whoa oh Grandpa,
Tell me 'bout the good ole days.

I love that song..

and we have mended all fences

for your grandpa and your family

Going through my closet the other day
I found an old yearbook flipped right to the page of that senior trip
Down there on that panama strip
We all started yelling when we smelled the beach
Couldn't wait to try our fake ids
We only had a few days
And a whole lot of memories to make

Oh man, we were livin'
Didn't waste one minute
We talked, we drank and danced and said goodbye
We laughed until we cried

This past year my family
Was sittin' cross-legged around the Christmas tree
Listening to granddad
We all knew it would prolly be his last
He was cracking jokes and we were taking turns
Telling stories about fishin or lessons learned
Out on the porch with him
We all felt like kids again

Oh man, we were livin
Sitting there reminiscing
We sang and talked and traveled back in time
We laughed until we cried

It's like the best days under the sun
Every emotion rolled into one
A little of this, a little of that
Kinda happy, kinda sad

Just the other night the baby was cryin
So I got out of bed and rocked her awhile and I held her tight
And told her it'll be alright
My mind went back to a few years ago
We tried so long we almost gave up hope
And I remember you coming in and tellin me the news

Oh man, we were livin
Going crazy in the kitchen
We danced and screamed and held each other tight
We laughed until we cried
