      Unfortunately radio won’t play it though because of the one line that says “I wish country music still played on the radio”. But it can still be successful without airplay. I love it

    My grandfather died on 12-27-2017. There's no amount of dirt on this earth that could fill the hole in my heart when he left this world. He was my everything. I didn't have a real father, and he filled that role. He taught me how to fish, hunt, mow, chainsaw, fix cars, golf, camp, shoot guns, ride horses and most importantly how to be a man, and what that means. That man made me who I am today, and pop if you're out there listening I love you and miss you so damn much. I'm doing what I can for mawmaw. We think of you everyday, all day. I hate that cancer took you away from us. I want you to know you left your fingerprints on all of us, especially me. Rest easy pawpaw

    Mine died 10/02/16. Best man you could meet. He worked every day, came home and worked in the garden. He lived for squirrel hunting. If he told you something, you never had to to fact check. Man I miss him. He always said he'd never make it past 70. He was 69. Squirrel season opened October 1st. He got to go camping and shoot a few. October 2nd he came home and had a heart attach before unpacking. He was my idol. The person I looked up to the most and the person who held our entire family together. Man I miss my pawpaw.
    This song is great and deserves a #1 spot on the chart. Good luck man!

    I’m 14. My pawpaw died September 9th 2018. He was my best friend and I miss him everyday I hate that cancer had taken him. He taught me everything in life exept for how to live without him. Rest easy up there pawpaw

    My grandpa is 95 still works served in Korea lived through the depression grew up unable to drink milk I have pictures of the old family road tripping to the farm in Iowa with a goat literally tied to the side of a an old goes model t so he could have the milk he needed that man is the hardest most kindest all around balanced person I know if it wasn't for his good influence all the bad things I've been through would be just that bad but he makes them all lessons... I once heard a quote that says if you impact enough people it will seem as though you've lived here for a million years he really demonstrates that
    even when he passes he won't die I'll carry it on
