I Still Sing the Old Songs |
Grandpa I’ve been thinking bout you lately |
Wondering if you’d found your peace of mind |
I bet you’d be proud to know your grandsons never crossed that Mason Dixon line |
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 would save me |
To see the day the south will rise again |
Daddy wore his Purple Heart so proudly long before he turned into a man |
Buried with our flag across his casket I was still too young to understand |
And I still sing the old songs… |
Mama spent her last years in the garden while brother took his turn behind a gun |
Lord I’d give my life to find the freedom lost within the old songs that you |
sung |
And I still sing the old songs… |
