They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To

My grandma, she was fifteen when she married
 The boy who would be my granddad
 And he never, even touched her, until they said I do
 And he finally took her hand
 And they filled a home with children
 My daddy, was the sixteenth one
 And even after granddad died
 She never gave another her love
 They don't make'em like they used to
 You don't hear stories like that these days
 They don't make'em like they used to
 The kind of love that last, always
 Thats the kind of story
 That I want to write with you too
 We can make it like they used to
 We can make it like they used to
 My daddy, he worked two jobs
 To make sure us four kids, had what we needed
 And mama she taught us all
 That God provided for those who believe
 No we did not have much, but they made sure
 We were always together
 And even when times were tough
 They taught us that family is forever
 They don't make'em like they used to
 You don't hear stories like that these days
 They don't make'em like they used to
 The kind of love that last, always
 Thats the kind of story
 That I want to write with you too
 We can make it like they used to
 We can make it like they used to
 We are writing our story line by line
 The good and bad times
 And I pray we never stop
 Until the last chaper is closed on this life
 And when our grandchildren
 Pull our memory off of the shelf
 I hope they see, we fought for things that mattered
 And we loved till our last breath
 May they say
 They don't make'em like they used to
 You don't hear stories like that these days
 They don't make'em like they used to
 The kind of love that last, always
 Thats the kind of story
 That I want to write with you too
 We can make it like they used to
 We can make it like they used to
 We can make it like they used to
 We will make it like they used to
