Letra de I still sing the old songs

Grandpa i've been thinking bout you lately
wondering if you'd found your peace of mind
i guess 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 i 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 i took my 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
