专辑:Me And My Gang[00:00:10]
Rascal Flatts - Ellsworth[00:00:12]
Grandma burned the biscuits[00:00:14]
Nearly took the house down with it[00:00:18]
Now she's in assisted livin'[00:00:21]
We all knew that day would come[00:00:24]
We knew she was too gone to drive[00:00:28]
The day she parked on I-65[00:00:31]
Found her on the shoulder cryin'[00:00:35]
She didn't know where she was[00:00:38]
It's like her mind just quit[00:00:43]
Oh, but bring up Grandpa[00:00:47]
It's like someone flipped a switch[00:00:50]
Chorus:[00:00:55]
A front porch light and a blue Desoto[00:00:56]
Couple of straws in a Coca-Cola[00:00:59]
You could see it all goin' down[00:01:05]
A handsome boy in army green[00:01:10]
A tear on his face, down on a knee[00:01:13]
Shaky voice, a diamond ring[00:01:17]
She'll put you in that town[00:01:21]
Tomorrow she won't remember[00:01:24]
What she did today[00:01:27]
But just ask her about Ellsworth,[00:01:30]
Kansas 1948[00:01:35]
She takes out his medals[00:01:45]
A cigar box of letters[00:01:48]
Sits and scatters pictures[00:01:52]
Black and whites of days gone by.[00:01:54]
We started losin' her when she lost him,[00:01:59]
But to hear her carry on[00:02:04]
You'd swear she's seventeen again[00:02:07]
Chorus:[00:02:11]
Football games and leaves[00:02:11]
Are cracklin'[00:02:14]
Walking her home in his letter jacket[00:02:15]
You can see it all goin' down[00:02:19]
A perfect night on a front porch Glider[00:02:25]
Sayin' goodnight for the next[00:02:28]
Three hours[00:02:31]
Her tired eyes grow wide and bright[00:02:33]
When she talks about that town[00:02:36]
Tomorrow she won't remember[00:02:40]
What she did today[00:02:42]
But just ask her about Ellsworth,[00:02:46]
Kansas 1948[00:02:47]
While the world is fading[00:03:06]
All around her[00:03:08]
Sharin' a sundae at the counter[00:03:09]
He's goin' on and on about her[00:03:13]
Bet she's right there right now[00:03:16]
Tomorrow she won't remember[00:03:20]
What she did today[00:03:22]
But just ask her about Ellsworth,[00:03:26]
Kansas 1948[00:03:30]
END[00:03:48]
