MAMMA’S DADDY LIVED ALL BY HIMSELF
AFTER GRANDMA PASSED AWAY HE SAID
THERE COULD NEVER BE ANY ONE ELSE
SHE WAS GONE ‘FORE I WAS BORN
ALWAYS WONDERD WHAT SHE WAS LIKE
SO I SAT UP IN GRANDPA’S LAP
AND I ASKED HIM ONE NIGHT…AND HE SAID
 
CHORUS
SHE HAD THE KIND OF BEAUTY
YOU ONLY SEE IN THE MOVIES
ONE CLASSY LADY
THE LIGHT OF MY LIFE
SHE’D SING AND PLAY THAT OLD GUITAR
STRAIT FROM HER KENTUCKY HEART
I KNEW I’D NEVER LOVE AGAIN
SHE WAS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN
MARALIN MONROE AND LORRETTA LYNN
 
PULLED OUT THAT OLD RED HANKERCHIEF
MUST’VE HAD SOMETHIN’ IN HIS EYE
TOLD ME HOW THEY MET AND HOW THEY SAID GOODBYE
GOT OUT AN OLD CIGAR BOX
FULL OF PHOTOGRAGHS
AND HE TOLD A COUPLE MORE STORIES
IT WAS GOOD TO SEE GRANDPA LAUGH…AS HE SAID
