Lyrics
My grandaddy's daddy Settled down here on this land A mule forty acres and two willing hands Worked this timber turned to lumber Built the house where I was raised And he did it all because he was taught the old ways By the time my daddy started Passing down these tools to me They were time tested tried and true family legacies Save the seeds out of the garden Let the biblе lead your way Lord I am thankful he passed down thе old ways Well hard times are hard But they make you who you are And the lessons that we've learned along the way Are meant to be used often Lest they be forgotten Life ain't always made of good old days And I'm a proud member of the old ways Daddy crossed over In the spring of ninety-five He left it on my shoulders to keep it all alive Though I feel like a stranger In this fast and modern age I live a life of passing round And handing down the old ways Well hard times are hard But they make you who you are And the lessons that we've learned along the way Are meant to be used often Lest they be forgotten Life ain't always made of good old days And I'm a proud member of the old ways And I'm a proud member of the old ways
