Matt Hunter Music - Billy's Grandkid

He's got a slow walk, he's got a slow talk
But at the end of the day all the work is done
And the grandkids all laugh when the old man shows his crack
But I'm always proud to call myself his grandson

He fought in a war that so many have scorned
But the old man's never backed down from what he's done
He roped in the rodeo and drank til the bar was closed
I wish I could go back in time to see the stories I'd been told

And I've been told a time or two
Boy, your Grandpa is showing through

And I said, cause I'm Billy's Grandkid
And I just can't help it
He is part of who I am
He's got a blue collared soul
Never know when to say no
American born and a simple man
I'm Billy's Grandkid

His boots always covered in dirt
He cried the day they laid Chick in the Earth
And Smokey Joe would follow him everywhere he'd go
He's got a big heart and he's sure done his part
To make sure his lessons on life are passed down

And I've been told a time or two
Boy, your Grandpa is showing through

And I said, cause I'm Billy's Grandkid
And I just can't help it
He is part of who I am
He's got a blue collared soul
Never know when to say no
American born and a simple man
I'm Billy's Grandkid

So when you ask us all, why we stand so tall
We'll tell you proudly and as loudly as we can

That we are Billy's grandkids
And we just can't help it
He is part of who we are
We've got a blue collared soul
Never know when to say no
American born and a simple man
We're Billy's grandkids
We're Billy's grandkids
We're Billy's grandkids
I'm Billy's Grandkid
