lyrics

Your grandparents made our wedding in the pouring rain
Red clay mud on your wedding dress, but good champagne
We did the Electric Slide in the old grey barn
Your grandpa Joe came up to me, squeezed my arm, he said:

You can't rehearse for better or for worse
There's green times, lean times, blessings and curses
Easy to lose it son, Harder to win it
You just got to be her man, start to finish

Your grandpa Joe's a stern man, never seen him smile before
He winked at me with his steel blue eyes, shuffled across the floor
Bent to kiss your grandma Jane in her silver wheelchair
Fed her cake, wiped her lips and fixed her hair

You can't rehearse for better or for worse
There's green times, lean times, blessings and curses
We can lose it hon, Harder to win it
I'm gonna be your man, start to finish

Christmas day your grandma Jane passed without warning
Day of the funeral, your grandpa died that morning
I just kinda lost it there all smiling and crying
Old Joe lived what he told and it sent my heart a-flyin'

You can't rehearse for better or for worse
There's green times, lean times, blessings and curses
He never lost it hon, but boy did he win it
Joe was Jane's man, start to finish

We can't rehearse for better or for worse
There's green times, lean times, blessings and curses
It's easy to lose it, Harder to win it
I'm gonna be your man, start to finish
I'm gonna be your man, start to finish.
