[Verse 1] I remember you in that rocking chair I was in my boots and my underwear Playing rodeo all night long You used to count til it hit eight seconds When you hit sixtys the time you left us But youre in my heart, so Ill never be alone I know youre watching over me [Chorus] I hope one day Ill be the man you used to be Quick to love and slow to anger No, you never met a stranger I hope one day when youre looking down on me I make you smile, I make you proud I may not be there now But I hope one day Ill be man enough to be sitting there In my granddaddys chair [Verse 2] You were eight track, tapes, and Conway Twitty Road trip with Nana to Panama City Everybody knew she was your girl You taught me love, you taught me living Cars and jokes and good catfishing I gave you hell and you gave me the world Im sure missing you right now [Chorus] I hope one day Ill be the man you used to be Quick to love and slow to anger No, you never met a stranger I hope one day when youre looking down on me I make you smile, I make you proud I may not be there now But I hope one day Ill be man enough to be sitting there In my granddaddys chair My granddaddys chair [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Yeah, I hope one day when youre looking down on me I make you smile, I make you proud I may not be there now But I hope one day Ill be man enough to be sitting there In my granddaddys chair Oh, yeah In my granddaddys chair [Outro] Rest in peace, I love you, granddaddy
