Jason Crabb - Ellsworth lyrics

Your rating:

Grandma burned the biscuits

Nearly took the house down with it

Now she's in assisted livin'

We all knew that day would come

We knew she was too gone to drive

The day she parked on I-65

Found her on the shoulder cryin'

She didn't know where she was



It's like her mind just quit

Oh, but bring up grandpa

It's like someone flipped a switch



A front porch light and blue Desoto

Couple of straws in a Coca-Cola

You could 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 won't remember what she did today

But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948



She takes out his medals

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

You'd swear she's seventeen again



Football games and leaves are cracklin'

Walking her home in his letter jacket

You could see it all goin' down

A perfect night on a front porch glider

Sayin' goodnight for the next three hours

Her tired eyes grow wide and bright

When she talks about that town

Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today

But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948



While the world is fading all around her

Sharin' 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

But just ask her about Ellsworth, Kansas 1948
