Granddaddy's Gun

It sits obove the mantel
On a couple rusty nails
And its worth abunch of money
But it damn sure aint for sell
The good lord only knows all the storys it could tell
Granddadys gun
He bought it new out of a sears and robuck cataloge
And it shot a many shell over the top of an old bird dog
And it backed a buglar down when grandma took the saftey off Granddadys gun
Its just a double barrell 12 the stock is cracked
And it kicks like hell
It wouldnt mean what it means to me to no one
I can here his voice when i put it to my shoulder a guns like a women son its all how hold her
Taught me a whole more then how to hunt
And one of these days ill pass it on to my son
Granddadys gun
He handed it to me
On the day i turn thirteen
With a half shot box a shells
And a kit to keep it clean
I keep a picture in the case of that sweet ol man in me and Granddays gun
Its just a double barrell 12 the stock is cracked and it kicks like hell
It wouldnt mean what it means to me to no one
I can hear his voice when i put it to my shoulders a guns like a women son its all how you hold her
He taught me a whole more then how to hunt
And one of these days ill pass it on to my son
Granddadys gun
Theres a longbeard liven on the living room wall that i got with a box call
And granddadys gun
Theres a shot up stop sighn on 49
That me and billy jo took out one night
With granddadys gun
Granddadys gun
It site above the mantel
On a couple rusty nails
And its worth abunch of money
But it damn sure aint for sell
