(Verse 1)
I remember those summer days, sun shinin' bright,
Grandpa’s green goose truck, oh what a memory
We rumble through the town, with the windows rolled down,
On Roller Coaster Road, where laughter's profound.
(Verse 2)
He’d pick me up with a smile, say “Let’s go for a ride,”
With the scent of old leather, and the breeze by my side.
His hands on the wheel, a story to tell,
Of music and memories, oh, he knew them so well.
(Chorus)
Oh, Grandpa Jim, I miss you so,
With your steel guitar and the love you’d show.
Singing those country tunes, under the stars,
In that green goose truck, you’re forever in my heart.
(Verse 3)
He’d strum that old steel guitar, the notes would entwine,
Telling tales of Marty Robbins, and how he’d shine.
“Sold him that gear, boy, now listen real close,
Country music’s a treasure, it’s what I love most.”
(Verse 4)
Sweet tea in hand, while the crickets did sing,
We’d talk about life, the joy that it brings.
The taste of his fudge he made around the holidays oh, it will smooth any craving
Every bite was a story, a memory to hold.
(Chorus)
Oh, Grandpa Jim, I miss you so,
With your steel guitar and the love you’d show.
Singing those country tunes, under the stars,
In that green goose truck, you’re forever in my heart.
(Bridge)
Now I’m driving that road, but it feels so alone,
Without your laughter, the joy that we’d known.
But I carry your music, it echoes in me,
In every sweet note, it’s your spirit that’s free.
(Chorus)
Oh, Grandpa Jim, I miss you so,
With your steel guitar and the love you’d show.
Singing those country tunes, under the stars,
In that green goose truck, you’re forever my heart.
(Outro)
So here’s to the memories, the love that won’t fade,
With every strum of the steel, I’m forever remade.
Thank you, Grandpa Jim, for the songs that you gave,
In my heart, you’re the music, my soul you have saved.
