    How I always felt about my grandfather. A hard working Christian man. He built the house his family lived in, raised us up as a subsistence farmer, and he worked a regular job on top of all that.

    My grandpa joined the Wyoming National Guard Calvary unit in 1937. Cowboy as well. Then, career military from WW2 until after Vietnam. This always reminds me of him. The kindest person I’ve ever known.

    This is the way I felt about my Dad. I thought the sun rose in the morning cause he was there. He had feet of clay and faults but he was a teacher of many truths. I lost him at age 68, way too soon. I still miss him to this day and it's been 32 years. I am 74 now and he crosses my mind almost daily and I miss his grounding voice that kept me from spiraling off. I know wait for the day when I will meet my parents in heaven.🙏

    I remember hearing Randy Travis the first time when I was a young teenager.. thinking he sounds so old country... but I liked it... I love it now... give me that old country sound that my Pop-Pop raised me on. I'm not a fan of alot of new country because it's POP not country... I truly hope country music doesn't lose it's roots with voices like this. Makes me miss my Pop-Pop even more than I have everyday since he passed.

    I'm not sure why I am crying. I have heard this song more times than I can count. Maybe just hit me all that generation is gone, along with their histories. My mom's parents died long before any of kids were born. Maybe it is because, I miss Randy and all the music he could have been putting out, but for the stroke.
    That line: "my mommy's daddy was his only son" always made me stop and have to figure out the relation. Great-grandpa. I love that line.

    This one reminds me of my grandmothers older brother. He never had a tooth in his head during my life. He didn't sit in a chair at picnics, he would hunker down near a tree. He always had coins in his pocket for us kids and he loved me. I never doubted that for a minute. And I loved him. Thank you for your reaction.

    I grew up only knowing my maternal grandfather and he was such a good man. He could tell stories that made me roll with laughter. I miss him so much. My paternal grandfather died the day I was born. My poor dad didn't know which way to go. Stay at the hospital with my mom as I entered the world, or go to his dad's side as he left. Great tribute song ❤

    My paternal grandfather was born in 1880 and passed in 1976. His father was a US Deputy Marshall in East Texas, and what is now Southwest Oklahoma. My grandfather left many stories of his father chasing outlaws and especially one named Red Buck. He also left stories taking my grandfather along with him to the Indian camps in Indian Territory, now Oklahoma, when they still lived in teepees. I was very close with my grandfather, and this song seemed to be about him, although I know that millions of others feel the same way and rightly so. I am a grandfather, and my grandsons are not little anymore. I hope I have a positive effect on them, like my grandfather did me.😮

  • @wearinganapron

    In the same vein, I would recommend "Bible and a .44" by Ashley McBride. It won't cut as deeply, as painfully, as this one, but is sweet and warming in the same way.

    I've always said no other music can touch you like a really sad traditional country song, or country love song can bring up feelings if sadness and joy all at the same time, it just has a way of going deep in your soul and just ripping at your heart like no other music can, there's no music like country music!!

      He never knew his material grandpa. He passed away before he was born. He grew up very close to his great-grandpa. The song was written years before Randy heard it but it was almost like it was written by Randy himself because of how much it matched his own life.

He couldn't hardly get out of the rocker...so, we'd purposely run as close by as we could and laugh when it couldn't get to us!! 😂❤

    I have all of Randy Travis' vinyl from back in the day and I still play records every Saturday for a few hours with the great grandchildren, I let them pick something out of the hundreds of albums I have and we have such a fun time! They get to know some great music and I get to listen to whatever strikes their fancy, I know I'll love whatever they choose, they are my original choices after all!

    I love Randy Travis's voice and music style. He hit the national music scene in the 1980's when country was turning pop and almost single-handedly resurrected the classic country sound. One of his early big hits is Forever and Ever, Amen. Watch his music video if you haven't already done so.

  • @planojag595

    The timbre of his rich baritone voice is unparalleled. My favorite Randy Travis songs are Reasons I Cheat; Promises; Take Another Swing At Me; This is Me; Look Heart, No Hands; Spirit of a Boy, Wisdom of a Man; That’s Where I Draw the Line; I Told You So; The Box; He Walked On Water; Three Wooden Crosses; More Life; Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart; It’s Just a Matter of Time; On the Other Hand; and Forever and Ever Amen.

    I'm sorry about your loss of your grandfather. I lost my grandmother a few years ago. 6 months before my wedding. And not a day goes by that I don't think about her. She was an Irish woman who married a country boy from Mississippi, He was in the military stationed in England in the 60's and that's where they met. ❤
    I knew this would hit you when I saw the title. I grew up listening to this song.

    Sadly, what I miss is not having that kind of relationship with any of my grandparents. There were just so many grandchildren. It was the same for my daughters. The grandparents, my parents and in-laws, never had a closeness with my girls. Long ago, I swore things would be different when I had grandchildren. I wanted to break that chain. I now have a wonderful granddaughter, 17-years-old, and a just as awesome grandson, 11-years-old. They live next door to my husband and me, and I was blessed to be able to leave my job to care for both of them as babies and beyond so they wouldn't have to go to daycare. I've been blessed, and my grandchildren will have happy memories of their grandparents. That was my goal, and Im happy to say, my husband and I have achieved it.

    Randy said that the 1st time he heard this song he knew he felt like it had been written just for him & he had to record it. He grew up extremely close to his maternal great grandfather, just like in the song. His mom’s dad was the oldest of 7 sons & 1 daughter. My cousin’s father-in-law was the youngest son. Her husband is a couple years younger than Randy, so they grew up together. Randy’s mom’s dad passed away from an aneurysm before he was born, so he was very close to his great-grandpa growing up.

    I think that Randy has the most quintessential country voice. If anyone ever asks what country music should sound like...it's Randy Travis. This "new" country being created these days doesn't sound like Country to me.
    It took me years to figure out he was talking about his great-granddad, not just his grandad. "My Mama's daddy (his granddad) was his oldest son..." just in case anyone missed that.
