Lyrics : Proud

Grandpa's old truck had rust on the floor-boards
Three speeds on the column, a few dings in the door
But he waved at everybody as she drove threw town
Proud

I bet I heard a thousand stories
About all the things he done
But the day he married grandma
Has to be my favorite one
And every time he'd tell it
He'd pull that picture out
Proud

He never met a stranger
And man he sure loved me
He worked hard till the day hе died
To make a name for this family
Thе only time he hung his head
Is when he stopped to pray
And there ain't a day goes by
Where I don't thank God I got his name
I know he's up there lookin' down
Proud

He used to say "Son it ain't the money"
"It's the things you can't buy"
"That'll really make you happy"
"And that will get you through this life"
"And don't forget to thank the good Lord"
"For everything you've had"
"And boy, you be be proud"
He never met a stranger
And man he sure loved me
He worked hard till the day he died
To make a name for this family
The only time he hung his head
Is when he stopped to pray
And there ain't a day goes by
Where I don't thank God I got his name
Yeah, I know he's up there smiling down
Proud

There's a couple hundred headstones
In a field of green across town
I guess somethings never change
He still stands out in a crowd
And it makes me proud
Yeah, I'm so proud
