Granddaddy left a scar on this world
My mama was his last darling girl
And all I have left
I found on a shelf
Old records, of Willie and Merle
Granddaddy was a Colonel in the Guard
A love of outlaw music in his heart
Though we never met
He found a way to teach me yet
About country music, and where to start
The words of Waylon ring in my ear
And I can feel my Grandad sittin' here
Sayin' "Son don't lose the music
Take what I say and use it"
When I drop that needle, his words are loud and clear
When I drop that needle, his words are loud and clear
Red Headed Stranger, Hank, and Cash
How I loved my Grandad's stash
Lord, I've give it all
To rest that needle down and talk
And pour a glass
The words of Waylon ring in my ear
And I can feel my Grandad sittin' here
Sayin' "Son don't lose the music
Take what I say and use it"
When I drop that needle, his words are loud and clear
When I drop that needle, his words are loud and clear
The words of Waylon ring in my ear
And I can feel my Grandad sittin' here
Sayin' "Son don't lose the music
Take what I say and use it"
When I drop that needle, his words are loud and clear
When I drop that needle, his words are loud and clear
