My grandmother She was kind and held a wisdom like no other Her words echo deep inside my heart We're never apart My grandfather He was so proud of his family and his holler He worked the land and worked his sons and daughters He lived with honor Even though some leaves have gently fallen We all know new trees will grow A family tree becomes an orchard callin' For us to sing their song Their memory goes on We stitch together Every memory and thing we can remember A tapestry of happiness and tears Passed down year to year We tell our children Every story so they can continue building A foundation that is solid and so strong For them to carry on Even though some older leaves have fallen We all know new trees will grow A family tree becomes an orchard callin' For us to sing their song Their memory goes on Oh, the years, they may pass away (they may pass away) But their memory never fades They stand besides us in the orchard that they made (they stand besides us in the orchard that they made) That they made Even though some older leaves have fallen We all know new trees will grow A family tree becomes an orchard callin' For us to sing their song Their memory goes on and on La-na-na, na-na-na-na La-na-na, na-na-na-na La-na-na, na-na-na-na Ni-ni-ni
