In Color

You know... I don't sound a bit like Jamey Johnson and I would be doing this song a dis-service by trying to sound like him or play this song like him. so I hope you enjoy my rendition of a great song.

This is a song written by Jamey Johnson
In Color Lyrics

I said grandpa whats this picture here its all black and white it aint real clear is that you there? He said yeah I was 11 times were tough back in '35 thats me and uncle Joe just tryin to survive a cotton farm in the great depression.

If it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just trying to save each other you should've seen it in color.

Oh and this one here was taken over seas in the middle of hell in 1943 in the winter time you can almost see my breath that was my tail gunner ole Johnny Magee he was a high school teacher from new Orleans and he had my back right through the day we left.

If it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just trying to save each other you should've seen it in color.

A picture's worth a thousand words but you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered you should've seen it in color

This one is my favorite one. This is me and grandma in the summer sun all dressed up the day we said our vows. You can't tell it here but it was hot that June and that rose was red and her eyes were blue and just look at that smile I was so proud.
Thats the story of my life right there in black and white

And if it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just trying to save each other you should've seen it in color.

A pictures worth a thousand words but you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered you should have seen it in color.

You should have seen it in color

This is a very nice cover, Stuart. I always love hearing you sing and play. You always say, "I'm just an old picker", but you have fans, my friend, who are excited to see you keep rocking like this. = )

I listened again... you did very good.

[qwertylory]

The lyrics is so good...somewhat touching for me and reminds me of my younger years with my mom and siblings striving very hard to survive 'coz our lives were bit complicated.
