grandpa’s barn - the roys lyrics

[verse 1]
there’s an old rusty tractor sittin’ there in his barn
still covered in dirt from workin’ on his farm
there’s an old faded calendar from johnsons hardware store
still says july nineteen fifty four

[verse 2]
theres a piece of that ladder i climbed where he couldn’t see
i smoked my first and last cigarette
and i turned john deere green
no he never told momma, when he caught me he just laughed
and said son that won’t make you a man

[chorus]
today the sun was shinin’ as the family gathered round
teardrops were falling as we laid him in the ground
but i knew where i could come to be with things close to his heart
there’s a lifetime of memories in grandpa’s barn

[verse 3]
i rolled back the cover on his long white cadillac
at ten years old he let me steer sitting there on his lap
theres a picture of grandma that he kept in the dash
and an old 8track, his favorite johnny cash

[verse 4]
in a corner of his tackroom, underneath his cross
theres a worn out holy bible
the one that saved him when he was lost
it said remember son
you’ve got to get down on your knees
and thank god for the blessings you receive
[chorus]
today the sun was shining as the family gathered round
teardrops were falling as we laid him in the ground
but i knew where i could come to be with things close to his heart
theres a lifetime of memories in grandpas barn
i’m reliving a lifetime
in grandpa’s barn
