Album: That Much Further West
I told you I was joining the army had no excuse
Seemed the right thing to do
And you called me a fool
Said I'd come back mean and cruel
I said I just wanted to make my grandfather proud
Even though he's not around
Been gone since I was 13
I'm still worried what he'd think about me
Playin' this guitar just ain't gonna cut it for long
Me singing these songs don't compare to what he did over there
I need to prove I can carry my share
Take all my own load to bear
To me it only seems fair
