Aaron Lewis - Grandaddy's Gun Lyrics
It sits above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
It ain't worth a lot of money and it damn sure ain't for sale
The good Lord only knows all the stories it could tell
My Granddaddy's gun
And it shot a many shells over the back of an old bird dog
It backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off
Granddaddy's gun.
[Chorus:]
It's just an old double-barrel twelve
The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell
It wouldn't mean what means to me to no one
I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder,
"A gun's like a woman, son, it's all how you hold her."
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
My Granddaddy's gun
He handed it to me on the day I turned thirteen
With a half-shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean
I keep a picture in the case of that sweet old man and me
Granddaddy's gun
[Chorus:]
It's just an old double-barrel twelve
The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell
It wouldn't mean what means to me to no one
I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder,
"A gun's like a woman, son, it's all how you hold her."
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
My Granddaddy's gun
There's a long beard hanging on the living room wall
That I got with a box call
And Granddaddy's gun
There's a shot up stop sign on forty nine
That me and Billy Joe shot up one night
With Granddaddy's gun
It sits above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
It ain't worth a lot of money and it damn sure ain't for sale

any on in 2019????
I lost my grandfather January 2019 to liver cancer i was planning to go up to visit after i found out i called him every day and told him to hold strong till i get there he unfortunately passed away 2 days before my scheduled flight i have so many memories with him sitting in a hunting blind with his old lever action 30.30. 2 things i inherited from his was his truck and that gun. RIP Grandpa Short
2019 anyone I was hanging out with my family and my mom said I had a 22 rifle that I never new I had but it's my grandpa I didn't really get to meet wish I could say thank you for everything he did I just wish I could see him smiling but one day we will truly meet again
My grandfather passed before i could of met him, but i have his old marine hat that i don't let out of my sight, and fuck trying to get money out of it, i could be homeless and still have it with me.
This song reminds me of the times I got to see my grandpa before he passed away and the fun times we had
This song sucks dick
I can not believe I found this song on accident. I love it, it really speaks to me.
Forte heim...
I live in 10 hours away from the old house my grandparents lived in up in canada,he never taught me how to shoot as it was family tradition for father to teach his son , I had just reached the border in northern maine ,he had been in a coma for 7 hours but he died right then , didnt get to see him one last time. Even if i couldn't of talked to him wish i had made it, the last thing i have of him is his old .22 that he used to shoot small game with, that man taught me to be honest and kind i never appreciated him as much as when he was alive as i miss him now
2:52 I can still hear his voice when i put it to my shoulder a gun's like a woman son it's all how you hold her..
Embrace the kick, that's the trick.
I'm not really a gun person, more of a sword guy, but if I ever do have kids and grandkids, I would love to teach them to swordfight and pass down a sword my grandfather brought back from WW2. I know it's not exactly the same experience, but swordsmanship has taught me a lot in my life and I hope one day to pass those lessons onto the next generation
I’m latterly crying😢missing my grandpa
When I was 6 my grandpa for my birthday he got me a 12 gauge he said I couldn't use it till I wad 13.
I didn’t get to meet my grandad before he died..... he was a veteran who loved guns and this song makes me think of him...
I miss you grandad. I'm doin ok.
My grandpas gun that he gave to me is a browning automatic twelve gauge
The first time i shot a 12 gauge i was nine my dad handed me a Remington loaded with 3 1/2 inch shells and they were high brass
I’m sorry but if you dislike this song fuck off and get off YouTube like come on there’s nothing to not like about it fuck off if you don’t you only get one grandfather love him to death
This is my favorite song ever it is really inspiring
inever meet my grandfather i was born snopping and found a gun i was 6 and did not what for i was told it was my a10ga and the best thing happen win I put that frist shell boom and sure anofe there it was a double bread turkey 11incs and I miss him
Aaron! You rock dude. Always have and this is a great fckn song.
I gave my 14 year old son my 1920-30 12 gauge
I’m Australian but this still makes perfect sense
NO MACHINE GUNS OR SEMI AUTO PUSSY CRAP PISTOLS just good ol shotys n shells
It's so weird hearing Aaron Lewis sing country, but I think his voice fits it perfectly.
That is an amazing song
I cut ties with my family and now I’m creating my family with values!!
born and raised in Vermont by my papa
Not going to lie this song got to me deep actually brought tears and I'm a full grown man darn
I wish i could have met my grandpa
This song means so much to me. I cry every time I hear it.. rest peace to all the grandad that helped make us who we are.
This is fucking amazing I can’t wait til my sons old enough he’s getting my first shotgun
I’ll have paps aught six with me on opening day
So Im not that into country, was he ever accepted as a country singer?
Richard Cooper ware have you been he has been
Ant this Blake Shelton song
I played this the day of my Great grandfather's funeral. I swear i can still hear him telling me to pull it to my shoulder and let loose on the cans he set up againest an old tree. I love you Papa. R.I.P Clause Burn's. 6/2/17.
Great song
I have my grandpas old Ithaca 12 gauage and man that's a heavy gun and has a good kick and still hold up to this day it's my lucky gun
I have my grandpas gun it’s a 20 gage
You know I’ve been looking for the same shot gun and everyone sent me this link , great I’ll never Own one . At least I have my grandpas 1951 jc Higgins 28
Damn I wish my grandpa didn’t suck he has never did anything with me he didn’t do anything with my dad ether my dad did everything with his uncle his uncle died a Mounth befor I was born of cancer and my other grandpa died when my mom was 2 he was a firefighter he died in the Beverly hill supper club fire if u know what that is it was in Cincinnati
Beautiful song.My granddaddy gave me a single shot 12 gauge as well. I love it even though it kicks like heck.
Does anyone else want be his grandson ?
😢😭❤️💕
that was really awesome! good for the soul
I literally just inherited my grandfathers Sears and Roebuck. It’s only a lever action .22 but the memories are the same. This is my new favorite song
On my 21st birthday my dad and cousin got me a surprise dad wouldn't say what but said I needed to come with him to pick it up so we drove for a half hour the surprise gift was a Mossberg sa20
Years later I got a Remington 1187 and a ruger american 9mm
Hoping this would be my grandkids
My grandpa would just yell at me if I complained about the kick
my dad was given a 12gauge 1838 pump that was brought back from wwII if that old gun could talk thank u nice song

I can’t stand Aaron Louis
ain't for sale
My dad gave me his 410 that he got from his dad. I'm gonna give it to my son when I have a son. My dad gave it to me when I was 3 years old. ~ Levi B. ~
I love this song so much ❤️. My dad's got a 357 harret
I've always only had one grandfather as my father's father died when he was 2 but my grandfather on my mothers side who is still alive thankfully is a grizzled old marine who served in Vietnam. I wasn't able to see him since I was 8 because of family issues. I am currently 15. He taught me to shoot two years ago with a S&W .22 handgun, a 20 gauge under-over, and a black powder .36 in the woods behind his house. He also got me hunter certified last year. He lives in Maine so about 5 hours away from me. When I hear this song I think back to when he taught me and it was the best trip I ever took and I've visited him as much as I can since then. I cant look at this song like i miss him currently but i look at it like I'm going to miss him when he passes. I will never forget the time I spent up there
I'm in between Iraq and Kurdistan. I'm missin' my grandpa and huntin' right now.
♥️♥️♥️
"Guns like a woman son...its how you hold her."
I'm about to turn 47. I've got a decent gun collection to hand down with 5 grown boys and about to have the 5th grandchild to hand them down to. Here in Alabama, they'll get 'em, too.
Though I have a grandfather still living, the PawPaw i was closest to passed in 1981. He had no guns to hand down.....but his ring he brought back from WWII commemorating his destroyer's (Eberle) bombardment of Palermo Sicily in 1943-44 will be handed down to one of my sons. As far as I know, the grandfather i still have has no guns to hand down.
My dad passed (suicide) near 3 years ago and i did get one of his guns...a Ruger Super Blackhawk .44 Magnum. It'll stay in the family for at least another couple generations.
Hopfully ALL my guns will stay in the family as long as any of my offspring that know who I am are still living.
Brandon Trimbell int
Brandon turned me on to this song. I miss him. He was my friend I had just meet only knew him for 4 days and he had a wreck on
A 4 wheeler down the street from his house and where I was staying. He is no longer with us today. RIP. I love you Brandon. Tremble

My grandpa passed away this past February. I still have the gun he gave me Christmas of 2016. Stoeger Condor Supreme over and under double barrel 12 gauge. I’m taking it in my first dove hunt tomorrow.
That really brings back memories !!
Outstanding...........Memories...!!!
I just lost my grandpa two days ago
Aaron makes me a country fan...and I'm from Germany!!!
i got my grandpas sawed off 12 gauge
Makes me remember my granddad's double barrel I still have it it's not for sale isn't worth much to anyone else but to me!!
my grandpa gave me a 30 30 model 94 winchester manufactured in 1941 and he was born in 1941 thats why he gave it to me
When my Dad past away I received his original Ruger 10-22 that we used to kill a lot of wild pigs that we were able to trap..we would feed them out until someone in the community needed some pork out would come that rifle and down went a pig or 2 and we would skin them and cut up the meat for people.. THOSE WERE THE GOOD OL DAYS... well I'm 55 now and that Little rifle has a note between the stock and rubber pad.. it says l have left this rifle to you MY GRANDSON it was left to me by my Dad your GREAT GRANDPA...Treat it with love and respect and sometime when you are shooting it I hope you think of me and my Dad...I LOVE YOU from PAPA ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
love this....days gone by in Amerika, except in a few places!! Return to God...
I have Pap's Savage 99 in the gun safe. She was made in 1927 and was a wedding gift to my grandfather from my grandmother. She still shoots beautifully. I was fortunate to harvest a few deer with it, but when I carry it, it isn't about hunting. With it on my shoulder and Dad's Zippo lighter in my pocket, it is the closest I can get to going for a walk with Pap and Dad...
My pawpaw was my hero im 20 years old and my grandfather was the one who taught me how to shoot she an i used to do so much fun stuff together . Last year my pawpaw passed away an i will never forget hearing him say i love you scooter . I miss him every single day.
Scumfuck putrid lying soulless subhuman greedy selfish thieves
It’s been a year know since my grandpa dyed he gave me my first gun when I was 11 for my birthday
I passed on to son my grandpa's .300 savage he baught new in 1958. I taught him to hunt with that gun. I wish my son could hear my grandfather's hunting stories like I did. Rest in peace papa.
My first gun my granddaddy gave me was a 410 break barrel from Sears & after that my dad baught me a Henry 22 lever action....the good ole days....now days it 2019 nothing but Millennial Snowflakes in this world.
This song gets to me a lot. I have great-great uncles model 11 he ordered from a Sears and roebuck catalogue. The song hits home big time
I still miss you old man, and grandma too now days.
This makes me hate german gun laws so hard
This is going to be me and my boy or daughter
Guns are more than tools to some people there a part of the family
Damn Aaron, you're killing me with the song!
my pawpaw gave me hi 30-06 when i was 12
My grandpa was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer when I was 10. He was given 5 years to live, he hurts everyday but it's been almost 6 years and he's still here. He has very few good days and suffers almost all the time, but I'll sit next to him whenever I'm over there and just listen to his stories. Hes a strong man. 76 and cancer free, but still fighting for his life everyday. Hes had some really bad days lately. Could barely stand up, but he promised me he would go with me when I take the truck up to get checked on.
I'm not getting any gun of his but I'm getting his truck.
I just wish he was in the shape he was in when I was little, but I'm very blessed hes still here
This song means so much to me
Aaron Lewis is more country than most country singers nowadays.
I have my Granddaddy's gun. He left it to me when he passed away in 1985 when I was 14. It is my most cherished possession.
Such a lovely 😊 song ! You have such a great 👍 voice for singing 🎤 ! God bless you always !!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💋💋💋💋💋💕💕💕💕💕😘😘😘😘😘💗💗💗💗💗😍😍😍😍😍😊😊😊😊😊😃😃😃😃😃
My grandma dont have much time left on this Earth and my pop isn't too far behind. I use to be afraid of my pop because he is a hard ass, but now we couldn't be any closer. My pop showed me how to load, shoot, take apart, and clean a gun. He said he's leaving me his guns but the one I'll have the most attachment with is his Ruger .44 Super Blackhawk, the 1st pistol I shot with him. I'll be buried with that gun. He showed me how to be a man the best he could in his old age, the rest I had to learn on my own.
Grandfather passed away I was left with his cowboy hat and his red Ryder, I dedicate this song to my gpa, lmao Ik it wasn’t a real gun but I Cherished it and still wear his cowboy hat.
RIP SAILOR
I have my grandpas 12 gauge sawed off shotgun and no one in the family will shoot it except me
