Song Length 3:19 Genre Rock - Classic

Lyrics

Verse 1
Papa Joe was an all American man
Raised on the dirt of his family's land
A small town farm boy reaching for the skies
But oh how his grandkids lit up his eyes

Chorus
Oh Papa Joe calm and cool
Taught us heart was the strongest tool
With dry humor and a soothing tone
He built a legacy carved in stone

Verse 2
Traded his tractor for a cockpit seat
Army wings made his life complete
Nation's highest flying medal pinned on his chest
But he never bragged he just did his best

Chorus
Oh Papa Joe calm and cool
Taught us heart was the strongest tool
With dry humor and a soothing tone
He built a legacy carved in stone

Bridge
Loved like a lion his pride so vast
Calm in the storm his strength would last
We'd huddle close at the sound of his voice
Every story was the real McCoy

Chorus
Oh Papa Joe calm and wise
Taught us stars are worth the skies
With warm tales and a lion's light
He made our cloudy days feel bright
