Rascal Flatts Elsworth lyrics...i do not own any part of this song!!
from the album me and my gang

Grandma burned the biscuits
Nearly took the house down with it
Now she's in assisted living
We all knew that day would come

We knew she was too gone to drive
The day she parked on I-65
Found her on the shoulder cryin
She didn't know where she was

It's like her mind just quit
Oh but bring up grandpa
It's like someone flipped a switch

A front porch light and a blue DeSoto
A couple of straws in a Coca-Cola
You can see it all goin down
A handsome boy in army green
A tear on his face
Down on a knee, shaky voice, a diamond ring
She'll put you in that town
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today
But just ask about Ellsworth, Kansas, 1948

She takes out his medals
A cigar box of letters
Sits and scatters pictures
Black and whites of days gone by

We started losin her when she lost him
But to hear her carry on
You'd swear she's seventeen again

Football games and leaves a cracklin
Walkin her home in his letter jacket
You can see it all goin down
A perfect night on a front porch glider
Sayin goodnight for the next three hours
Her tired eyes go wide and bright
When she talks about that town
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today
But just ask aabout Ellsworth, Kansas, 1948

While the world is fading all around her
Sharing a sundae at the counter
He's goin on and on about her
Bet she's right there right now
Tomorrow she won't remember what she did today
But just ask about Ellsworth, Kansas, 1948

  • I LOVE IT,But SOOOOOOOO sad :;(

  • I just cried, so hard...my grandma died two days ago. And I remember the day before we went through all her jewelry and she told me all stories. She had my grandfathers meddles out. Told me how they met....and just like in the song we started losing her, when we lost him. They died on the exact same day, an exact year apart.

  • remids me of my grandma she died 3 years ago at 60 of cancer she was born with a desise that she couldnt walk but that didnt stop here she had 3 kids 1 son and 2 daughters the last one shouldnt of made it but she was a fighter and my great grandma is 96 and shes still alive i wish that happened for my grandma your always in my heart G-ma

  • This song reminds me of my grandmother. It also happened to my great-grandmother a few years ago. When I read the beginning of the lyrics before the intro was over I was in tears. I wish this was not happening to me. The lyrics are so true.

  • :'( we played this at my great grandmas funeral. surprisingly every single word in this song describes wat went on with her from crying on the shoulder to the very last word. the only diffrence is that she lived in virginia so when i preformed the song at her funeral i said richmond virginia instead of elmsworth kansas. i miss her soo much.

  • This reminds me of the Notebook (:

  • i cry evry time i listen 2 this

  • This song reminds me of my own grandmother she died 4 years ago its like the song says we lost her when she lost my grandfather

  • I love this song, because my great grandma really lived in Ellsworth around that date. Her brother lived there, and her sister-in-law still live there. I have family and many friends. This song takes me back to where it really all started.

  • this song is so sweet
