grandaddy's gun

Singer:aaron lewis

it sits above the mantel on a couple rusty nails

it ain't worth a lot of money and it damn sure ain't for sale

the good lord only knows all the stories it could tell

my granddaddy's gun

he bought it new out of the sears and roebuck catalog

and it shot a many shells over the back of an old bird dog

it backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off

granddaddy's gun. it's just an old double-barrel twelve

the stock is cracked and it kicks like hell

it wouldn't mean what means to me to no one

i can still hear his voice when i put it to my shoulder

a gun's like a woman
