I Still Sing The Old Songs Lyrics - Tanya Tucker

Grandpa I've been thinking bout you lately 

Wondering if you'd found your peace of mind 

I bet you'd be proud to know your grandsons 

Never crossed that Mason Dixon line 

And I still sing the old songs that you taught me 

And I still pray to Jesus now and then 

And just like you I wish that he would save me 

To see the day the South will rise again 

Daddy wore his purple heart so proudly 

Long before he turned into a man 

Buried with our flag across his casket 

I was still too young to understand

And I still sing the old songs that you taught me 

And I still pray to Jesus now and then 

And just like you I wish that he would save me 

To see the day the South will rise again 

Mama spent her last years in the garden 

While brother took his turn behind a gun 

Lord, I'd give my life to find the freedom lost 

Within the old songs that you sung

And I still sing the old songs that you taught me 

And I still pray to Jesus now and then 

And just like you I wish that he would save me 

To see the day the South will rise again
