Remember Him That Way

There's an old man in a La-Z-Boy TV on a western, fast asleep Gray in his hair, at least what's left But the heart of a lion beating in his chest And there's a little more slow in his go A little less rock in his roll these days But I remember him ten-feet tall and bulletproof Throwing me a ball in cowboy boots A whistle and the dogs start running A whisper and Mama starts blushing A wrench in his hand and a beer in the other God couldn't make a man any tougher And that "S" on his chest is starting to fade But I'll always remember him that way I used to think that he'd never get old That kind of thing was for regular Joes And he tries real hard to put up a fight But I guess time is his kryptonite 'Cause I remember him ten-feet tall and bulletproof Throwing me a ball in cowboy boots A whistle and the dogs start running A whisper and Mama starts blushing A wrench in his hand and a beer in the other God couldn't make a man any tougher And that "S" on his chest is starting to fade But I'll always remember him that way There's a little more slow in his go A little less rock in his roll these days But I remember him ten-feet tall and bulletproof Throwing me a ball in cowboy boots A whistle and the dogs start running A whisper and Mama starts blushing A wrench in his hand and a beer in the other God couldn't make a man any tougher Yeah, that "S" on his chest is starting to fade But there's some things time can't erase 'Cause I'll always remember him that way
