Gord Bamford - Stubborn Blood lyrics

Grandpa bought a quarter section With a shoebox full of rodeo money And built grandma a two-room mansion That still stands to this day Talk about sweat, hard work and trouble When you're living with your fate in the hands of the weather They were picking rocks and working the land Till the wind blew it all away Chorus: They hauled water-we turn taps They chopped wood-we cook with gas I think a lot about those days these days And when I think I've got it tough Never think of giving up Cause I've got their stubborn blood Running through my veins After ten hours working and two in traffic Got home dog tired to a smashed-in window My TV was gone and I thought about Grandpa Who never even locked his door Chorus
