Ellsworth |
| Grandma burned the biscuits |
| Nearly took the house down with it |
| Now she’s in assisted livin' |
| We all knew that day would come |
| We knew she was too gone to drive |
| The day she parked on I-65 |
| Found her on the shoulder cryin' |
| She didn’t know where she was |
| It’s like her mind just quit |
| Oh, but bring up grandpa |
| It’s like someone flipped a switch |
| A front porch light and blue Desoto |
| Couple of straws in a Coca-Cola |
| You could see it all goin' down |
| A handsome boy in army green |
| A tear on his face, down on a knee |
| Shaky voice, a diamond ring |
| She’ll put you in that town |
| Tomorrow she won’t remember what she did today |
| But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948 |
| She takes out his medals |
| A cigar box of letters |
| Sits and scatters pictures |
| Black and whites of days gone by |
| We started losin' her when she lost him |
| But to hear her carry on |
| You’d swear she’s seventeen again |
| Football games and leaves are cracklin' |
| Walking her home in his letter jacket |
| You could see it all goin' down |
| A perfect night on a front porch glider |
| Sayin' goodnight for the next three hours |
| Her tired eyes grow wide and bright |
| When she talks about that town |
| Tomorrow she won’t remember what she did today |
| But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948 |
| While the world is fading all around her |
| Sharin' a sundae at the counter |
| He’s goin' on and on about her |
| Bet she’s right there right now |
| Tomorrow she won’t remember what she did today |
| But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948 |
