(VERSE)

He got older on the outside first
Loved corny jokes, and he told 'em worse
Gave me a nickel from an alligator purse
Grandpa would have loved John Prine

He played a fiddle with a yellow rose
Taught me to drink from a garden hose
Drew me pictures but he stole my nose
Grandpa would have loved John Prine

(CHORUS)

I'll put my nickel in the jukebox
And sing to "Daddy's Hands"
Pretend you were here dancing,
and playing fiddle with the band

If heaven doesn't have a dance floor
I'll play my guitar loud
So you and your Rosie
Can have a dance on a cloud

(INSTRUMENTAL)

(VERSE)

Grandpa told me when he fought the war
Marched with a gremlin on a foreign shore
Hitler wasn't home, they didn't knock on the door
Grandpa would have loved John Prine

We made scooters out of roller skates
Engraved funnies onto printing plates
Grandma cooked and Grandpa ate
And I know he would have loved John Prine

(CHORUS)

I'll put my nickel in the jukebox
And sing to "Daddy's Hands"
Pretend you were here dancing,
and playing fiddle with the band

If heaven doesn't have a dance floor
I'll play my guitar loud
So you and your Rosie
Can have a dance on a cloud

(CHORUS REPEATS)

I'll put my nickel in the jukebox
And you'll take angel by the hand
You'll be dancing up in heaven
Just like you always planned
