bill anderson – papaw’s sunday boots lyrics
the first time that i saw him
he was wearing them to church
they’re looked old, stuffed and scratchy
like the ones he wore at work
he was just a common man
he didn’t even know a suit
but you could see the pride reflecting in the shinny
of pawpaw’s sunday boots
every time he wore them
i couldn’t help but stare
i guess one day he noticed
cos he sat down in his chair
he slipped them off en said
sonny why don’t you try pull them on
they might not fit you now
but they will be yours some day when am gone
chorus
even after all this time
i still can’t fit his shoes
but i wouldn’t take a million dollars
for papaw’s sunday boots
it wasn’t until our wedding day
that i took them from the bath
still they didn’t fit me
so i wore two pairs of socks
saddle them in the closset
i didn’t wear them for a while
until i put them on the day
we brought home our first new born child
and now i made a special list
of things i want to do before i am gone
i wanna wear them up on that stage
and sing his favourite song
i wanna walk out of that door up here
and then my last request
make sure i am wearing
pawpaw’s sunday boots
the day i am laid to rest
