Grandfather Henry Knows Everything

[Verse] Grandfather Henry’s got a way with words, He’s seen the world, got stories like birds. He starts with, "Let's put it this way," And you know what's co'min’ will take all day. [Verse 2] He'll say, "Long story short," with a twinkle in his eye, But you settle in, ‘cause it's gonna fly by. His tales are never brief, they're like a winding road, Full of twists and turns as his wisdom’s told. [Chorus] Long story short, it's never short at all, But I'd sit and listen, hear ‘em all. Grandpa’s got a treasure of yarns to spin, Full of life's lessons, where to begin? [Verse 3] He talks of the old days, simpler times, Harvests and heartaches, and hilltop climbs. Every tale’s a journey, a history book, He’s a living legend, if you take a look. [Verse 4] He fixes my problems with a steady hand, "Let's put it this way, you’re a grown-up man.” He’s a sage, a guide through thick and thin, With endless tales waiting to begin. [Chorus] Long story short, it's never short at all, But I'd sit and listen, hear ‘em all. Grandpa’s got a treasure of yarns to spin, Full of life's lessons, where to begin?
