He was old school and overalls
|
Tough as nails as I recall
|
Fought a war and came back home
|
Honest as the day was long
|
Right before my grandpa died he looked me right straight in the eyes
|
Said here's some words to get you by
|
Ro help you on the journey of your life
|
|
You'll need a hero
|
And a good dog
|
Especially a good dog
|
A hammer and a handsaw
|
A bandaid now and then
|
You'll need a home to come home to
|
Son we all need a refuge
|
On the straight and narrow path
|
You need to learn to bend
|
Get a good square keep it level
|
Have grace to face the devil
|
You need an angel flying by your side
|
On the journey of you
|
|
Ride the wind 'til we meet again
|
On the other side of life
|
You'll need some good luck and a Bible
|
Especially a Bible
|
A lot of faith in god above
|
And a woman you can love
|
You'll need a good song that you can sing on
|
And a shoulder you and lean on
|
And you gotta draw the line sometimes when push comes to shove
|
You'll need to lose some to be a winner
|
And have courage to surrender
|
Laugh a lot and keep it light
|
On the journey of your life
|
|
And no matter what dreams you're chasing
|
Never get above your raising
|
May the simple things be amazing
|
On the journey of your life
|
|
He said I'll be an angel flying by your side
|
On the journey of your life
|
