[00:15.02] I said, Grandpa what’s this picture here
[00:19.17] It’s all black and white and ain’t real clear
[00:22.73] Is that you he said, yeah I was eleven
[00:27.92]
[00:30.72] Times were tough back in thirty-five
[00:34.11] That’s me and Uncle Joe just tryin’ to survive
[00:37.88] A cotton farm in the Great Depression
[00:42.83]
[00:45.48] And if it looks like we were scared to death
[00:49.35] Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
[00:54.87] You should have seen it in color
[00:59.70]
[01:04.18] This one here was taken overseas
[01:08.08] In the middle of hell in nineteen forty-three
[01:12.10] In the winter time you can almost see my breath
[01:17.27]
[01:19.68] That was my tail gunner ole’ Johnny McGee
[01:23.19] He was a high school teacher from New Orleans
[01:27.31] And he had my back right through the day we left
[01:32.24]
[01:34.72] And if it looks like we were scared to death
[01:38.49] Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
[01:44.08] You should have seen it in color
[01:48.68]
[01:50.08] A picture’s worth a thousand words
[01:53.55] But you can’t see what those shades of gray keep covered
[01:58.95] You should have seen it in color
[02:03.74]
[02:20.37] This one is my favorite one
[02:23.66] It’s me and grandma in the summer sun
[02:27.54] All dressed up the day we said our vows
[02:33.10]
[02:34.94] You can’t tell it here but it was hot that June
[02:38.67] That rose was red and her eyes were blue
[02:42.34] And just look at that smile I was so proud
[02:47.74]
[02:51.83] That’s the story of my life
[02:59.50] Right there in black and white
[03:04.51]
[03:04.92] And if it looks like we were scared to death
[03:08.80] Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
[03:14.28] You should have seen it in color
[03:18.79]
[03:20.21] A picture’s worth a thousand words
[03:23.67] But you can’t see what those shades of gray keep covered
[03:28.99] You should have seen it in color
