[00:15.48]I think what made granddaddy great is that he didn't work all day
[00:21.93]I'd love the time we spent and I'd go everywhere he went
[00:26.93]We'd end up on some old deer trail
[00:32.05]And I'd listen hard as he would spin his tales
[00:36.64]
[00:38.12]We were in a field of stumps he said I got a new one for you hon
[00:43.89]These trees once stood tall and I'm the man that made them fall
[00:49.00]I cut 'em up, sanded them down
[00:54.01]And you wouldn't believe what I found
[00:58.35]
[00:59.13]past the bark and all the scars
[01:02.05]Our home was in the heart of those old trees
[01:07.26]God bless who sowed those seeds
[01:10.02]A hundred years and they just grew
[01:13.37]And only heaven knew what they'd be, to our family
[01:21.20]All that time to become what they should
[01:26.78]you know Our home was in the heart of the wood
[01:31.19]
[01:35.31]He smiled, said there's my favorite one, pointed at a cherry stump
[01:40.76]He said I couldn't afford the one at Sears so the good lord planted one right here
[01:46.84]He carved out what he saw within and he gave it to my dad when he turned ten
[01:56.29]
[01:56.98]Past the bark and all the scars
[01:59.96]There was a guitar in the heart of that old tree
[02:05.47]All from just one seed
[02:07.94]A hundred years and it just grew
[02:11.24]And only heaven knew just what it'd be
[02:16.18]And how that tree could sing
[02:18.96]All the time to become what it should
[02:24.64]There were songs in the heart of the wood
[02:28.96]
[02:30.25]He said we can mark a tree to keep from getting lost
[02:35.82]and it'll always point our way home like that old rugged cross
[02:42.63]
[02:44.40]A hundred years and it just grew and only heaven knew what it'd be
[02:53.33]And who'd hang on that tree it held the Son of God like it should
[03:02.01]But I know it broke the heart of the wood
[03:07.00]
[03:11.11]i think what made granddaddy great was that he didn't work all day
[03:17.62]I'd love the time we spent
[03:20.00]I'd go everywhere that old man went
