Wish I could watch them jumping 'round Calling names Kicking cans And playing tag Hiding in every place Wish I could see them now And even join in their games How different life would be But I've got no time For silly chitty chatter I'm on my way 'Cause while my body's still on and I'm not getting better Time's passing away 'Cause I got a thing about seeing my grandson grow ♪ Wish I could buy them toys Rubber balls and trains Watch and see how tall they grow Bigger day by day Oh I want nothing more Than to see them laugh and play Life would be so different then But I got no time For silly chitty chatter I'm on my way 'Cause while my body's still on and my mind doesn't matter I'm going to pray 'Cause I got a thing about seeing my grandson grow ♪ Have we got no time For silly chitty chatter? I'm on my way 'Cause while my body's still on and my mind doesn't matter I'm hoping to stay 'Cause I got a thing about seeing my grandson grow
