Memories of My Grandpa

There he sat upon his horse; Chin held high for all to see, A smile as big as Tennessee, The happiest place that he could be; Chin held high for all to see, Up on his Streak, right next to me, The happiest place that he could be; Frozen now in my memory; Up on his Streak, right next to me, A smile as big as Tennessee, Frozen now in my memory; There he sat upon his horse.
