george jones - i still sing the old songs lyrics
grandpa, i’ve been thinking ’bout you lately
wondering if you’d found your peace of mind
and i guess that you’d be proud to know your grandson
never crossed that mason dixon line.
and i still sing the old songs that you taught me
an’ i still pray to jesus now and then
and just like you i wish that he would save me
to see the day the south will rise again.
daddy wore his purple heart so proudly
long before i turned into a man
and buried with our flag across his casket
i was still too young to understand.
and i still sing the old songs that you taught me
an’ i still pray to jesus now and then
and just like you i wish that he would save me
to see the day the south will rise again.
mama spent her last days in the garden
while i took my turn behind a gun
lord, i’d give my life to find the freedom
lost within the old songs that you sung.
and i still sing the old songs that you taught me
an’ i still pray to jesus now and then
and just like you i wish that he would save me
to see the day the south will rise again.
