Wish I could watch them jumping round, calling names Kicking cans and playing tag, hide in every place Wish I could see them now, and even join in their games How different life would be, but I've got no time for silly chitter-chatter I'm on my way That's why my blood's still warm and I'm not getting better Time's passing away Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
Wish I could buy them toys, rubber balls and trains Watch them see how tall they grow, make it day by day Oh I want nothing more, than to see them laugh and play Life would be so different then, but I've got no time for silly chitter-chatter I'm on my way 'Cause while my blood's still warm and my mind doesn't matter I'm going to pray Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
That we got no time for silly chitter-chatter I'm on my way 'Cause while my blood's still warm and my mind doesn't matter I'm hoping to stay Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
