When I was just a kid my granddaddy said
You've got to work real hard and take the things you get
But I did not know the effect it had on me
But now I know how much his words effected me
If you work hard then you deserve the things you get
You can be proud of the things you own
He never cut the corners when it came to giving me
The best Sundays of my whole life
I always wish I could've had the trampoline
In the end it ended up teaching me something
I don't need to have all the things I want
I should turn around and cherish what I've got
If you work hard then you deserve the things you get
You can be proud of the things you ow
My granddad spent his whole life on making me believe
(He spent his last talk on making me believe)
That I could truly make something of me
And I'd spell
Mississippi
Mississippi
Mississippi
Mississippi
I feel so lucky
He spent time on me
I would earn money
With each word I'd spell
Spelling
Mathematics
He knew all so well
If you work hard then you deserve the things you get
You can be proud of the things you ow
He never cut the corners when it came to giving me
The best Sundays of my whole life
And I'd spell
Mississippi
Mississippi
Mississippi
Mississippi
I feel so lucky
He spent time on me
I would earn money
With each word I'd spell
He spent time on me
