Rascal Flatts - Ellsworth
Grandma burned the biscuits
Nearly took the house down with it
Now she s in assisted livin
We all knew that day would come
We knew she was too gone to drive
The day she parked on I-65
Found her on the shoulder cryin
She didn t know where she was
It s like her mind just quit
Oh, but bring up Grandpa
It s like someone flipped a switch
A front porch light and a blue Desoto
Couple of straws in a Coca-Cola
You could see it all goin down
A handsome boy in army green
A tear on his face, down on a knee
Shaky voice, a diamond ring
She ll put you in that town
Tomorrow she won t remember
What she did today
But just ask her about Ellsworth,
Kansas 1948
She takes out his medals
A cigar box of letters
Sits and scatters pictures
Black and whites of days gone by.
We started losin her when she lost him,
But to hear her carry on
you d swear she s seventeen again
Football games and leaves
Are cracklin
Walking her home in his letter jacket
You can see it all goin down
A perfect night on a front porch
Glider
Sayin goodnight for the next
Three hours
Her tired eyes grow wide and bright
When she talks about that town
Tomorrow she won t remember
What she did today
But just ask her about Ellsworth,
Kansas 1948
While the world is fading
All around her
Sharin a sundae at the counter
He s goin on and on about her
Bet she s right there right now
Tomorrow she won t remember
What she did today
But just ask her about Ellsworth,
Kansas 1948
