Rascal Flatts - Ellsworth lyrics
Ellsworth - Rascal Flatts
Grandma burned the biscuits
Nearly took the house down with it.
Now shes in assisted livin
We all knew that day would come.
We knew she was to gone to drive
The day she parked on i 65.
Found her on the shoulder cryin
She didnt know where she was.
Its like her mind just quit.
Oh but bring up grandpa- it's like someone flipped a switch.
A front porch light and a blue Desota,
couple a straws in a coca cola:
You can see it all goin down.
A handsome boy in army green
A tear on his face- down on a knee,
Shaky voice- a diamond ring she'll put you in that town.
Tomorrow she wont remember what she did today,
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas, 1948.
She takes out his medals,Rascal Flatts - Ellsworth - http://motolyrics.com/rascal-flatts/ellsworth-lyrics.html
A cigar box of letters.
Sits and scatters pictures,
Black and whites of days gone by.
We started losin her when she lost him,
But to hear her carry on youd swear shes seventeen again
Football games and leaves a'cracklin
Walkin her home in his letter jacket,
You can see it all goin down.
A perfect night on a front porch glider,
Saying goodnight for the next 3 hours.
Her tired eyes go wide and bright
When she talks about that town.
Tomorrow she wont remember what she did today,
But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948.
While the world is fading all around her
Sharing a sundae at the counter
He's goin' on and on about her
Bet she's right there right now
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today
Just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas, 1948
