Текст песни In Color - Trace Adkins

I said, Grandpa what's this picture here?
It's black and white and it ain't real clear
Is that you there? He said yeah, I was eleven
Times were tough back in '35
That's me and Uncle Joe just trying to survive
A cotton farm in a Great Depression

And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
You should've seen it in color

Hey, this one here was taken overseas
In the middle of hell in 1943
It was winter time, you could almost see my breath
And that was my tail gunner, old Johnny Lafitte
He was a high school teacher from New Orleans
And he had my back till the day we left

And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
You should've seen it in color
A picture's worth a thousand words
But you can't see what those shades of gray keep covered
You should've seen it in color

Now this one is my favorite one
This is me and Grandma in the summer sun
All dressed up, the day we said our vows
You can't tell it here, but it was hot that June
That rose was red and her eyes were blue
And just look at me smiling, I was so proud
Son, that's the story of my life
It's all right there in black and white

And if it looks like we were scared to death
Like a couple of kids just trying to save each other
You should've seen it in color
A picture's worth a thousand words
But you can't see what those shades of gray keep covered
You should've seen it in color

A picture's worth a thousand words
But you can't see what those shades of gray keep covered
You should've seen it in color
You should've seen it in color
