There's an old rusty tractor
Sitting there in his barn
Still covered in dirt from working on his farm
Theres an old faded calender
From Johnsons hardware store
Still says July nineteen fifty four
Theres a piece of that ladder
I climbed where he couldn't see
I smoked my first and last cigarette
And i turned john deere green
No he never told momma
When he caught me he just laughed
And said son that won't make you a man
Today the sun was shining as the family gathered round
Teardrops were falling as we laid him in the ground
But i knew where i could come to be with things close to his heart
Theres a lifetime of memories
In grandpas barn
I rolled back the cover
On his long white cadillac
At ten years old he let me steer
Sitting there on his lap
Theres a picture of grandma
That he kept in the dash
An old 8track
His favorite Johnny Cash
In a corner of his tackroom
Underneath his cross
Theres a worn out Holy Bible
The one that saved him when he was lost
It said remember son
You've got to get down on your knees
And thank God for the blessings you receive
Today the sun was shining as the family gathered round
Teardrops were falling as we laid him in the ground
But i knew where i could come to be with things close to his heart
Theres a lifetime of memories
In grandpas barn
I'm reliving a lifetime
In grandpa's barn
