Verse 1
My nandaddy wasn’t one for wasting words
Didn’t talk real big, but the truth was heard
My nandaddy walked like a man who knew
That the Lord up above sees all you do
My nandaddy had calloused hands and a steady pace
A little bit of dirt and a whole lot of grace
He never needed gold, never needed fame
Just a Bible, his family, and an honest name
Chorus
My nandaddy lived everything he preached
From the front porch swing to the worn church seats
My nandaddy was strong when the world got cold
And gave this family more love than it could hold
Yeah, I miss my nandaddy each day that goes
In ways this broken heart still knows
Best man, best grandfather I’ll ever see
And I thank the Lord my nandaddy loved me
Verse 2
My nandaddy taught me how to stand up straight
How to trust God’s time and not curse fate
My nandaddy showed me what a man should be
Not by loud words, but by humility
My nandaddy loved with a faithful heart
That kind of love leaves a lasting mark
And even now when the daylight fades
I still hear the prayers my nandaddy prayed
Chorus
My nandaddy lived everything he preached
From the front porch swing to the worn church seats
My nandaddy was strong when the world got cold
And gave this family more love than it could hold
Yeah, I miss my nandaddy each day that goes
In ways this broken heart still knows
Best man, best grandfather I’ll ever see
And I thank the Lord my nandaddy loved me
Bridge
Some nights I sit and talk to my nandaddy still
Out in the quiet where the world stands still
And I ask the Lord why the good ones go
Why He calls home the hearts we need the most
But I know my nandaddy’s walking streets of gold
With the same pure faith and a heart so bold
And I know one day when my time is through
I’ll see my nandaddy smiling too
Final Chorus
My nandaddy lived everything he preached
And I still hold onto every word he’d speak
My nandaddy was a Christian to admire
A humble man with heaven in his fire
Yeah, I love my nandaddy, miss him more than words
Still reach for his voice when the whole world hurts
Best man, best grandfather this life gave me
And there’ll never be another nandaddy like he
Outro
My nandaddy, my hero, my heart, my friend
And I’ll love my nandaddy ‘til the very end
