Van Zant Lyrics

"Help Some Body" lyrics


My granddaddy was a hilly billy scholar blue collar of a man
he came from the school were you didnt need nuthin
if you couldnt make it with your own 2 hands
he was back woods backwards
used words like no sir yes mamm by god be darn
hell yea im american
and all the years he walked this earth
i swear all he did was work
he said the devil dreams on an idle horse
so you listen to me squirt

(chorus)
dont get too high on the bottle
and get right with the man
fight your fights
find the grace
in all the things that you cant change
and help sombody if you can

now granny said sonny stick to your guns
if you believe in somethin no matter why
cause its better to be hated for who you are
then be loved for who your not
she was 5 feet of concrete
new york born and raised on a slick city street she could stare you down
stand her grounds still kickin and screamin at 93
i remember just how frail she looked in that
hospital bed takin the last few breaths of life smilin as she said

(chorus)
dont get to high on the bottle ( just a little sip every now and then)
and get right with the man
fight your fights
find the grace
in all the things that you cant change
and help sombody if you can
and get right with the man

i never let a cow boy make the coffee
yea thats what granny always said to my grandad
and hed say never tell a joke that aint that funny more than once
and if you want to hear God laugh tell him your plans

(chorus)
dont get to high on the bottle
and get right with the man son
fight your fights
find the grace
in all the things that you cant change
and help sombody if you can
and get right with the man

and get right with the man!!
