He wore starched white shirts
Buttoned at the neck
He'd sit in the shade and watch the chickens peck
And his teeth were gone, but what the heck
I thought that he walked on water.
Said he was a cowboy when he was young
He could handle a rope and he was good with a gun
And my momma's daddy was his oldest son
And I thought that he walked on water.
And if the story was told
Only Heaven knows.
But his hat seemed to me
Like an old halo.
And though his wings,
They were never seen
I thought he walked on water.
And he tied a cord to the end of a mop,
And said son here's a pony...
Keep her at a trot.
And I'd ride in circles while he laughed alot
Then I'd flop down beside him
He was ninety years old in '63
And I loved him and he loved me
And, Lord, I cried the day he died
Cause I thought that he walked on water
(Repeat Chorus)
Yea, I thought that he walked on water
Get This Ringtone
