Grandpa Told Me So Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

1 If you don't get in the water, you're never gonna learn to swim

2 He said a snake is just as scared of you, as you are of him

3 He could tell by the moon when the fish would bite

4 Seems there was nothing that he didn't know

5 And as a kid I believed, 'cause grandpa told me so

6 He talked daddy into letting me have my first car

7 I thought I was really something till Becky Thompson broke my heart

8 That first taste of love nearly did me in

9 Getting over her was slow

10 And I knew someday I would, 'cause grandpa told me so

11 He said life was made for you to live

12 The best love is the love that you give

13 There'll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go

14 And I lived by those words, 'cause grandpa told me so

15 I promised him I wouldn't cry when it was his time to leave

16 That's the only promise I made him I couldn't keep

17 He smiled from his bed and said we'll meet again

18 Somewhere down the road

19 And I believed, 'cause grandpa told me so

20 He said life was made for you to live

21 The best love is the love that you give

22 There'll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go

23 And I lived by those words, 'cause grandpa told me so

24 He said life was made for you to live

25 The best love is the love that you give

26 There'll be times when you wanna hold on but you gotta let go

27 And I lived by those words, 'cause grandpa told me so

28 Yeah and I still believe, 'cause grandpa told me so

29 Grandpa told me so

30 I still believe

31 Grandpa told me so

32 I still believe

33 Yeah and I still believe
