Lyrics
Well sit right there and listen son. I'll tell you things your grandpa done.
He was long and tall and his eyes were kean, and he could swing that saw like you never seen
Hey Hey two by four. Wont you tell me what grandpa saw , hey hey tell me more
I wanna know what grandpa saw, I wanna know what grandpa saw
Well when the war was over son, he moved us all to Arkansas,
And he built that barn with his own two hands, and he played his fiddle in a bluegrass band
Hey Hey two by four. Wont you tell me what grandpa saw , hey hey tell me more
I wanna know what grandpa saw, I wanna know what grandpa saw
Like a knight on a pearly horse, he stormed the castle and he stole the girl
Rode a ship from a distant shore
I wish I seen what grandpa saw I wish I seen what grandpa saw
I wanna know what grandpa saw
He sold the farm and he moved back north, built every house in our neighborhood
And he played as hard as he worked each day, and he drank himself to an early grave
Hey Hey two by four. Wont you tell me what grandpa saw , hey hey tell me more
I wanna know what grandpa saw, I wanna know what grandpa saw
Hey Hey two by four. Wont you tell me what grandpa saw , hey hey tell me more
I wanna know what grandpa saw, I wanna know what grandpa saw
