《Grandpa Was a Carpenter》歌词

[00:00:00] Grandpa Was a Carpenter (爷爷是个木匠) - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)

[00:00:06] Grandpa wore his suit to dinner

[00:00:09] Nearly every day

[00:00:11] No particular reason

[00:00:13] He just dressed that way

[00:00:16] Brown necktie and a matching vest

[00:00:18] And both his wingtip shoes

[00:00:20] He built a closet on our back porch

[00:00:23] And put a penny in a burned out fuse

[00:00:25] Grandpa was a carpenter

[00:00:27] He built houses stores and banks

[00:00:30] Chain smoked Camel cigarettes

[00:00:32] And hammered nails in planks

[00:00:34] He was level on the level

[00:00:37] And shaved even every door

[00:00:39] And voted for Eisenhower

[00:00:42] 'Cause Lincoln won the war

[00:00:50] Well he used to sing me "Blood on the Saddle"

[00:00:52] And rock me on his knee

[00:00:55] And let me listen to radio

[00:00:57] Before we got T V

[00:00:59] Well he'd drive to church on Sunday

[00:01:01] And take me with him too

[00:01:04] Stained glass in every window

[00:01:06] Hearing aids in every pew

[00:01:09] Grandpa was a carpenter

[00:01:11] He built houses stores and banks

[00:01:13] Chain smoked Camel cigarettes

[00:01:16] And hammered nails in planks

[00:01:18] He was level on the level

[00:01:20] And shaved even every door

[00:01:23] And voted for Eisenhower

[00:01:25] 'Cause Lincoln won the war

[00:01:33] Now my grandma was a teacher

[00:01:36] Went to school in Bowling Green

[00:01:38] Traded in a milking cow

[00:01:40] For a Singer sewing machine

[00:01:43] She called her husband "Mister"

[00:01:45] And walked real tall and pride

[00:01:48] And used to buy me comic books

[00:01:50] After grandpa died

[00:01:52] Grandpa was a carpenter

[00:01:54] He built houses stores and banks

[00:01:57] Chain smoked Camel cigarettes

[00:01:59] And hammered nails in planks

[00:02:01] He was level on the level

[00:02:04] And shaved even every door

[00:02:06] And voted for Eisenhower

[00:02:09] 'Cause Lincoln won the war
