Wish I could watch them jumping round calling names Kicking cans and playing tag hide in every place Wish I could see them now and even join in their games How different life would be but I've got no time for silly chitter-chatter  I'm on my way That's why my blood's still warm and I'm not getting better  Time's passing away Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow   Wish I could buy them toys rubber balls and trains Watch them see how tall they grow make it day by day Oh I want nothing more than to see them laugh and play Life would be so different then but I've got no time for silly chitter-chatter  I'm on my way 'Cause while my blood's still warm and my mind doesn't matter  I'm going to pray Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow   That we got no time for silly chitter-chatter  I'm on my way 'Cause while my blood's still warm and my mind doesn't matter  I'm hoping to stay Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
