Testo Grandaddy

Grandaddy look at the gypsies dancing in the firelight

Burning so brightly

How do they keep themselves warm on such a night

See all the fiddlers twirling while he plays his violin
Laughing and shouting

Have you seen anything like it in all your life



Grandma was cold and chide when we get in

She?ll wanna know what we've done and where we've been

Promise me you'll never tell, ya know your secret's safe with me

I can be trusted

Wrap me up in your winter coat
Wrap me up so tight

I never will feel the cold

I'll be safe tonight



Can we go down to the railroad track and watch the train go by

Shining like silver

I hear the whistle, the train is on it's way

Hold me up over your shoulder so that I can see the light

Over the pine trees

How I would like to go riding on the train



Tell me the story again about the time you went away

You went to Chicago, no one knew where you were

Why did you ever come back here after you had run away

I'm glad you did sir

Wrap me in your winter coat

Wrap me up so tight

I never will feel the cold

I'll be safe tonight



When you were young you sailed up on the sea.

Wrap me up in your winter coat,

Wrap me up so tight,

I never will feel the cold.

I'll be warm tonight



Grandaddy tell me the names of all the stars up in the sky

Is there a heaven?

Do you think there is a life after we die?

Why do some people have all the gold and silver they can spend?

Others have nothing.

It isn't fair and I've always wondered why.



Can I hold the match while you light your pipe?

I love the smell of tobacco in the air.

Tell me again about how it was before I came to be

In the old country



Wrap me up in your winter coat

Wrap me up so tight

I never will feel the cold

I'll be warm tonight



Wrap me up in your winter coat

Wrap me up so tight

I never will feel the cold

I'll be warm tonight
