Standard (EADGBE)
Grandpa I been thinkin bout you lately
Wonderin if youd found your peace of mind
I guess youd be proud to know your grandsons
Never crossed that Mason Dixon Line.
Chorus
And I Still Sing The Old Songs That you taught me
And I still pray to Jesus now and then
And just like you I wish that he will save me
To see the day the South will rise again.
Daddy wore his purple heart so proudly
Long before I turned into a man
Buried with our flag acrossed his casket
I was still too young to understand.
Chorus
Momma spent her last years in the garden
While I took my turn behind the gun
Lord Id give my life to find the freedom
Lost within the old songs that you sung.
