Frank D. Fixer

Frank D. Fixer was a handyman He could handle anything He was my granddad He grew his own food And he could fix his own car I watched it all happen In our backyard He'd re-invent the part to fix a broken home He'd restore the heart Well, I wish I was a fixer I would fix you up inside I would build you a town if the world fell down I wish I was that guy, mm Well, if Frank D. Fixer were alive today Well, he might laugh at me Or he may have a lot to say He might ask that I keep working for the family To keep the bills all paid And be his protégé What happened to the ground right where we are? What happened to the family farm? Well, I wish I was a fixer I would fix you up inside I would build you a town if the world fell down I wish I was that guy Every evening breaking bread He showed us who a real man is No matter what my grandma said He would never lose his head Well, I wish I was a fixer I would fix you up inside I would build you a town if the world fell down I wish I was that guy Well, I wish I was a farmer I would grow you a Garden of Eden And I would bless our family with the gifts My granddad handed me How wonderful that would be Maybe I'll make that guy be me I can get behind that
