He was named by my grandma she got it from the bible
        C                                   F
And he passsed it to me like grandaddy's rifle
          C
Raised me up like sweet corn
                F
Created a disciple
        C
Yeah I fought it like hell
                    F
Hell he bacame a rival

Tried to Go against the grain

          C                                        G  F
And he'd send me a twenty just to get back on the saddle
      C                                        F
I put up a good fight but I didn't win the battle

[Pre-Chorus]
             Dm                      Am               F
I wear his blue jean jacket and his name like a badge of honor
   Dm                        Am
