Paroles de Legacy
He taught me how to drive a MasseyHow to work a clutch and keep it straight
Wore the gold off a wedding band only
Loved one woman till her last day
Saturdays we're checking trout lines
Catfish sermons in a John boat
Talking girls and talking life
And laughing at all his clean bad jokes
He was Superman in overalls
At least that's what I thought
Now he's up there with the angels
And the good lord by his side
And I'm down here trying like hell not to cry
Still wishing for a little more time
He was gentle he was strong
And when he passed he passed it on
More than that money his pocket
That truck that he bought us back in 1989
More than that field fulla cotton
He's gone not forgotten we mighta said goodbye
But a small town man's legacy never dies
He had his own garden and he grew tomatoes
So he could share em with the folks in town Yeah I bet he's looking down
Now he's up there with the angels
And the good lord by his side
And I'm down here trying like hell not to cry
Still wishing for a little more time
He was gentle he was strong
And when he passed he passed it on
More than that money his pocket
That truck that he bought us back in 1989
More than that field fulla cotton
He's gone not forgotten we mighta said goodbye
But a small town man's legacy never dies
Never dies
Can't wait to teach my son
Everything he taught me
I can't wait to carry on
The legacy
Now he's up there with the angels
"And grandma by his side"
And I'm down here trying like hell not to cry
Still wishing for a little more time
He was gentle he was strong
And when he passed he passed it on
More than that money his pocket
That truck that he bought us back in 1989
More than that field fulla cotton
He's gone not forgotten we mighta said goodbye
But a small town man's legacy never dies
It never dies
It never dies
It never dies
And laughing at all his clean bad jokes
He was Superman in overalls
At least that's what I thought
Now he's up there with the angels
And the good lord by his side
And I'm down here trying like hell not to cry
Still wishing for a little more time
He was gentle he was strong
And when he passed he passed it on
More than that money his pocket
That truck that he bought us back in 1989
More than that field fulla cotton
He's gone not forgotten we mighta said goodbye
But a small town man's legacy never dies
He had his own garden and he grew tomatoes
So he could share em with the folks in town Yeah I bet he's looking down
Now he's up there with the angels
And the good lord by his side
And I'm down here trying like hell not to cry

It never dies
It never dies
It never dies
