In Color I said Grandpa whats this picture here Its all black and white, and it aint real clear Is that you there, he said yeah, I was eleven And times were tough, back in thirty-five Thats me and Uncle Joe just tryin to survive A cotton farm, in the Great Depression And if it looks like we were scared to death Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other You shouldve seen it in color This one here was taken overseas In the middle of hell, in nineteen forty-three In the winter time, you can almost see my breath That was my tail gunner ole Johnny McGee He was a high school teacher from New Orleans And he had my back, right through the day we left If it looks like we were scared to death Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other You shouldve seen it in color A pictures worth a thousand words But you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered You shouldve seen it in color And this one is my favorite one This is me and grandma in the, summer sun All dressed up, the day we said our vows You cant tell it here but it was hot that June And that rose was red and her eyes were blue And just look at that smile, I was so proud Thats the story of my life Right there in black and white And if it looks like we were scared to death Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other You shouldve seen it in color Yeah a pictures worth a thousand words But you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered You shouldve seen it in color Shouldve seen it in color
