Lyrics

Granddaddy?s Gone
By Chris Wasmund


I try to remember all the things you told me
I could sure stand to use them now
About all the highs and lows as you carry down on that middle road
Between the lake and there when I?d stub my toe


Chorus
Saw two blue jays dancing on a branch
Reminds me of back when I was a kid
And we?d sit on the lake watching the sun dunk his head
Twenty-four years have gone away since then
And the yellow rose from your grave is still hanging above my head


Sitting uptown at the Hobo next to a glass of milk and a beer
I?d just love to listen to my grandfather talk
About when he was my age
And the things that he saw and all the shit he?d pull


Twenty-four years have gone away since then
Thinking back as I watched the sun come up this morning
Feeling that same, long since gone, feeling that I haven?t felt since then
Felt like I remembered all those things they told me, before the sun dips away again.
