My first nonagenarian grandparent: Happy 90th, Grandpa! I wrote you a song.
Sandy Bob
It's cloudy in the west and it's lookin' like rain Your durned ol' slicker's in the wagon again Sandy Bob
On a ten-dollar horse and a forty-dollar saddle You set out punchin' them Wolf Point cattle Sandy Bob
There's a lot of things a lot of people might not know about you You don't like to brag, you just don't seem to need to
Sandy Bob, you're a good grandpa Sandy Bob, you're a great grandpa, Sandy Bob You built you a cabin with your own two hands You found you a woman who would share your brand, Sandy Bob
There's a lot of things a lot of people might not know about you You seek the truth and you just don't like to be lied to
Sandy Bob, you're a good grandpa Sandy Bob, you're a great grandpa, Sandy Bob You built you a cabin with your own two hands You found you a woman who would share your brand, Sandy Bob
Sandy Bob, you're a good grandpa Sandy Bob, you're a great grandpa Cowboy, boxer, horseman, carpenter First lieutenant and a parole officer You're good with leather and you're good with words You walk with God and you talk to birds, Sandy Bob Oh Sandy, Sandy
(whistle outro)
Notes: Cousin Jenny took the above picture. Yesterday, Grandpa and Grandma were given an honorary plaque in the North Dakota Cowboy Hall of Fame. Tonight there will be a birthday bash at the Buckskin Bar in Killdeer--everyone's welcome. It's currently snowing outside and the ground is white!
