Painter's Song - Darden Smith[00:00:00]
He wore trousers every day of the week[00:00:24]
When he smiled he got[00:00:27]
Dimples in both cheeks[00:00:28]
He talked in Spanish and[00:00:30]
Loved to tell dirty jokes[00:00:32]
Spent his spare time at[00:00:36]
Otto's playin' checkers[00:00:37]
And listenin' to Gene Autry records[00:00:39]
With Clide the shoe shine boy[00:00:42]
And ole Roy Stoltz[00:00:44]
He was a painter by trade[00:00:48]
And perty darn good[00:00:49]
He used brushes and rollers[00:00:51]
To cover the wood[00:00:52]
He painted our house our barns[00:00:54]
Our sheds and our fence[00:00:56]
That was in 1967[00:00:59]
I was 5 my brother 11[00:01:03]
He'd let us help[00:01:06]
Pay us 50 cents[00:01:07]
Logic lives in a bucket'a paint[00:01:12]
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I ain't[00:01:14]
'Cause both can be spread[00:01:17]
With no trouble at all[00:01:19]
Thank God for good memories[00:01:24]
It don't make no sense to me[00:01:27]
Why people have to grow up at all[00:01:29]
He'd take me fishin' after[00:01:59]
Work when he could[00:02:00]
And he'd let me drink beer[00:02:01]
And it always felt good[00:02:03]
To know I didn't have to be[00:02:04]
Home time for supper[00:02:07]
Take our shirts off[00:02:10]
Let our skin get red[00:02:11]
And he'd talk about the[00:02:13]
War and shake his head[00:02:15]
Namin' Jesus Christ[00:02:16]
John Wayne all in one[00:02:18]
Logic lives in a bucket'a paint[00:02:23]
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I ain't[00:02:25]
'Cause both can spread[00:02:28]
With no trouble at all[00:02:30]
Thank God for the memories[00:02:34]
It don't make no sense to me[00:02:37]
Why people have to grow up at all[00:02:40]
I said thank the good Lord for memories[00:02:46]
An' it don't make no sense to me[00:02:49]
Why people have to grow up at all[00:02:52]
