The Grandpa That I Know

Joe Diffie

X2 Brand new shoes they hurt my feet This necktie is chokin' me Cuttin' off my air supply When I hang my head to cry When I hang my head and cry. I see tears on daddy's face Someone's hummin', Amazin' Grace Rain beats on this graveside tent Preacher swears he did repent Preacher swears he did repent. Chorus: They've got him layin' there in pinstripes How'd they get him in that suit I guess the Lord with recognize him Without his overalls and mules They all say he looks so natural All I see is a cold dark hole I won't commit this day to memory That ain't The Grandpa That I Know That ain't The Grandpa That I Know. X2 Ya know no tractor never pulled his plow He walked and cussed, and loved that ground His hands sowed each single seed Then prayed for rain and fight the weeds Prayed for rain and fight the weeds. He said the simple life, suits me fine Never dreamed beyond the county line Grandma was his boyhood bride He'll be back in her arms tonight He'll sleep there in her arms tonight. Chorus2: They've got him layin' there in pinstripes How'd they get him in that suit I guess the Lord with recognize him Without his overalls and mules They all say he looks so natural All I see is a cold dark hole I won't commit this day to memory That ain't The Grandpa That I Know. They played a pretty organ number Swore it was his favorite tune I know he'd prefer a fiddle Playin' Carol Country Blues. They all say he looks so natural All I see is a cold dark hole I won't commit this day to memory That ain't The Grandpa That I Know That ain't The Grandpa That I Know. X8 ?'s [email protected]
