In Color lyrics

I said 'Grandpa what's this picture here?

Its all black and white

It ain't real clear, is that you there?"

He said "Yeah, I was eleven"

Times were tough back in '35

That's me and uncle Joe just tryin' to survive

A cotton farm, in a 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 overseas

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.

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 picture is worth a thousand words

But you can't 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.

That's 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 picture's worth a thousand words

But you can't see what those shades of gray keep covered

You should have seen it in color.

You should have seen it in color

Yeah a pictures worth a thousand words

But you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered

You should have seen it in color
