Son

Son - (c) Chuck Schaeffer

Verse

It’s been awhile since you’ve been gone
I’ll tell you what’s been going on
J-R’s getting married soon
Kyle had a child in June
The town parade was weeks ago
They closed the mall you used to go
So much to say, so little time you know

Chorus
Son,
It’s so good to see you
After everything you’ve been through
What’s going on now, Son

Verse

Aunts and uncles coming down
Cousin Jamie’s back in town
Grill is burning, beer is cold
Stories surely will be told
Friends and family playing ball
I was faster than them all
But aches and pains slowed me to a crawl

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

Can’t believe time went so fast
only yesterday
Kids were bouncing on my knees
now I’m old and gray
Your mom and I worked real hard
to give our best to you
Do the same for those little girls
See their point of view


Chorus

Son,
It’s so good to see you
After everything you’ve been through
What’s going on now, Son
Son,
Come on over, take a load off
Kick your feet up, tell me what’s up
So proud to call you Son

Love the grandkids, bring ‘em back soon
Come back home, my Son

Don’t be a stranger, we sure miss you
My child and friend, my Son
