Intro

Verse

I wish that my Grandad was still here today au

Cause'

I'd love to here what he'd have to say .o|

About

three dollars and fifty-nine

cents for a gallon of

gas

And I'd

show him my wife and what I've done with my life

And

see if he liked all these songs that I write

Oh, I wish I

knew what he would think a

bout the

the fact that

If you're

sixteen and pregnant, you'll

get on tv, but yet we're

laying off

school teachers

fast as can

be

Oh, I wish I knew what he'd think about us

now

Chorus

He'd probably ask me

why the good ole'

US of A

Is

so damn tied up in our foreign aid

When the

American farmers got to

sell all the cows

To keep the

bank from

taking the house.

I wish

I could write

him in on my

ballot for the next presi

dent

Cause' there's

men like John Wayne,

Augustus McCrae,

The Lone

Ranger and his Indian

friend

But there will

never be a

nother man like

him

Verse

I'm glad that I'm not some big Hollywood star

Who thi

nks they have the right to go as far

As b

***hing about the hundred million dollars they make a

year

Cause' there's

scars on my knuckles and sweat on my brow

And I k

now that Grandpa, he'd sure be proud

Of

my little part that I've made to our family

tree

He'd probably ask me

why people like Casey Anthony can

get off scott free and why our

taxes are still killing

folks just li

ke you and me

Oh I wish I knew what he'd think about us

now.

Chorus

He'd probably ask me

why the good ole'

US of A

Is

so damn tied up in our foreign aid

When the

American farmers got to

sell all the cows

To keep the

bank from

taking the house.

I wish

I could write

him in on my

ballot for the next presi

dent

Cause' there's

men like John Wayne,

Augustus McCrae,

The Lone

Ranger and his Indian

friend

But there will

never be a

nother man like
