Grandview |
Just an old country boy, wearing my Osh-Kosh boots |
Walked by the trailer factory, every day on my way to school |
Early on in life, the only thing I wanted to do |
Was buy me a trailer and move it down to Grandview |
Got out of high school, got on at Whirpool |
Bought me a car, two guitars and everything |
Me and Patty were falling in love before the summer was through |
I started thinking about trailers and high lots in Grandview |
It was a scorching summer night, we just left the dairy bar |
We was sitting out on Ridgeland Road in the front seat of my car |
I said «Patty, if you marry me babe, I’ll take good care of you |
I’ll buy a brand new trailer and move it down to Grandview» |
She said «Ah your wedding song, it sounds real nice |
And I could sure get off on sleeping with you at night |
But I tell ya what baby, you want me, here’s what to do |
I want a brick home like my mother’s, ain’t movin' down to Grandview» |
That’s what she told me |
There’s been a lot of years, a lot of debt, a lot of pain |
Our youngest baby’s movin' out when she gets married next spring |
When the bash is over, I’ll tell you what I’m going to do |
I got my trailer picked out, gonna move it down to Grandview |
I got this 28 by 70 double-wide |
We could slide it on in there, honey |
We can chock those wheels real good |
I want it settin' nice and level |
Back it on in there boys |
And don’t get no mud on my front porch |
Cause the son of a btch is brand spankin' new, baby |
Stick it into Grandview |
Stick it into Grandview |
Slide it on in there, honey |
Stick it into Grandview |
