Lyrics:
I called him Lieutenant Dan
Purple Heart from Vietnam
Agent orange took his left arm
Was always first on his feet
Singin’ out loud and proud O say can you see
His right hand pressed to his heart
And he’d say
Life is learned with blood and sweat
Kindness is earned just like respect
Grandpa’s quartet was blood, sweat, kindness and respect
He loved to sing Amazin’ Grace
Every mornin’ at daybreak
From his church, his tractor seat
Nine o’clock was his bedtime
I'd hear him tellin' grandma's picture goodnight
Right before he’d fall asleep
Life is learned with blood and sweat
Kindness is earned just like respect
Grandpa’s quartet was blood, sweat, kindness and respect
I won’t forget all he taught me
Laugh how he sang so off key
Life is learned with blood and sweat
Kindness is earned just like respect
Grandpa’s quartet he sang till the Lord said rest
With blood, sweat, kindness and respect
Blood, sweat, kindness and respect
