Well I can 'member my grandpa when I was five years old.

Him and my grandma, they'd always be two southern lovers just kissin'

On each other so tenderly.

Mom and dad worked real hard just to raise us kids.

They were always there for me and didn't matter what it was I did.

They've seen the hard times, the sickness, and the hell.
