MiscellaneousGrandfather Blues lyrics by Joe Ely
My great great grandfather
Prospected for gold
In the wilds of Alaska
In the Yukon cold
My great grandfather
Fought the Civil War
On the side of the South
In the Infantry Corps
My own grandfather
Was a hell of a man
He rode Rock Island Railroad
In the blowing sand
All this makes me wonder
What they'll say about me?
Oh, he was just some fool rambler
Dyin' to be free
Ohh, I need one good woman
To pull me through
Yeah, yeah, I need one good woman
Just like you
My great great grandmother
Wore a calico gown
She had a double-barreled shotgun
She'd never set down
My great grandmother
Was a Cherokee bride
You could find her every evenin'
Down by the riverside
My own grandmother
Had a heart of gold
She had eyes like an Angel's
And an ocean for a Soul
All this makes me wonder
Hell, what they'll say about me?
Oh, he was just some fool rambler
Dyin' to be free
Ohh, I need one good woman
To pull me through
Yeah, yeah, I need one good woman
Just like you
Yeah, yeah, I need one good woman
Just like you
Yeah, yeah, I need one good woman
To pull me through
Yeah, yeah, I walked up this morning
Looking for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey, just no one
Can be you, ohh
