[00:18.95]It sits above the mantle on a couple rusty nails
[00:25.07]And it's worth a bunch of money
[00:27.62]
[00:28.43]but it damn sure ain't for sale
[00:30.86]
[00:31.74]The good Lord only knows
[00:34.08]all the stories it could tell
[00:37.26]Granddaddy's gun
[00:38.89]
[00:41.00]He bought it new out of
[00:43.44]a Sears and Roebuck catalog
[00:46.24]
[00:47.17]And it shot a many shell over
[00:50.43]the top of an old bird dog
[00:53.48]And it backed a burglar down
[00:56.09]when grandma took the safety off
[00:59.28]Granddaddy's gun
[01:00.84]
[01:03.34]It's just a double barrel 12
[01:06.58]The stock is cracked
[01:07.69]and it kicks like hell
[01:09.75]It wouldn't mean
[01:10.75]what it means to me to no one
[01:14.43]
[01:15.74]I can hear his voice
[01:17.19]when I put it to my shoulder
[01:19.34]"A gun's like a woman,
[01:20.40]son it's all how you hold her"
[01:22.41]He taught me a whole lot
[01:23.84]more than how to hunt
[01:26.90]
[01:28.59]And one of these days
[01:29.96]I'll pass it on to my son
[01:33.20]
[01:33.88]Granddaddy's gun
[01:36.26]
[01:41.00]He handed it to me on the day I turned 13
[01:46.57]
[01:47.38]With a half-shot box of shells
[01:50.13]and a kit to keep it clean
[01:52.82]
[01:53.62]I keep a picture in the case of
[01:56.81]that sweet old man and me
[01:58.93]With granddaddy's gun
[02:01.43]
[02:03.30]It's just a double barrel 12
[02:06.55]The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell
[02:09.58]It wouldn't mean
[02:10.46]what it means to me to no one
[02:14.51]
[02:15.76]I can hear his voice
[02:17.19]when I put it to my shoulder
[02:19.38]"A gun's like a woman,
[02:20.55]son it's all how you hold her"
[02:22.42]He taught me a whole lot
[02:23.91]more than how to hunt
[02:27.21]
[02:28.64]And one of these days
[02:29.90]I'll pass it on to my son
[02:33.86]Granddaddy's gun
[02:36.61]
[02:41.03]There's a long beard living
[02:42.55]on the living room wall
[02:44.27]That I got with a box call
[02:47.14]
[02:47.95]And granddaddy's gun
[02:50.16]
[02:53.64]There's a shot up stop sign on 49
[02:56.86]That me and Billy Joe took out one night
[03:00.34]With granddaddy's gun
[03:02.96]
[03:05.52]Granddaddy's gun
[03:08.82]
[03:12.69]It sits above the mantle
