I do in my liner notes. Want me to get 'em?
I'm surprised that the lyrics don't exist in Google's cache or on Andy's site...

Geof, I'm sure that you are totally right.
no team should ever celebrate being the nl central champs (st. louis included) thats like bragging that you made it 2 second base with a hooker.

I'll be happy to do so.
"Tools"
Words and Music by Andrew Peterson
(7-3-02, Florida, 10:02 p.m., the day Grampa died)
You sent me to the shed with all the tools
I remember how you said that I could take what I could use
I got a hammer and a ratchet set
A hundred tools I ain't used yet
They're rusty, but they work as good as new
Tools, tools
I remember you as quiet as a picture
Like that picture of the Navy sailor grinning for the girls
You had visited the barber
You were stationed at Pearl Harbor
A year before the War became the world's
And you say, "Boy, sometimes you've got to get up on that ship,
Leave all you love behind."
Well, Grampa, I've been everywhere
But Fargo, North Dakota
It ain't war, but it's a fight
Tools, tools
Well, I never knew you ever drew one picture
But if you want proof that I've got you
Here running through my veins
I could show you all the sketchbooks
That I filled when I was young
And sixty years ago you did the same
And you say, "Boy, just let 'em laugh
When all they see is lines--
Paint yourself a picture of your life.
I believe that Swedish folks were
Born with better eyes."
Grampa, I have always loved the sky
I think your're right
You gave me tools
You sent that telegraph to tell her that you missed her
When my daddy was a baby, oh, you gave him to the Lord
And the faith you handed down has somehow stuck around
And love has called you home again
To roam again no more
You sent me to the shed with all the tools
I remember how you said that I could take what I could use
Faith and Love and Hope are what I carried home
They're rusty, but they work as good as new
Tools, tools

Used without permission, but I hope AP won't mind. That song gets me every time, because it reminds me of my maternal grandfather and the really ... quietly passionate and respectful relationship that he and my dad have that's still reflected in my family nearly fifteen years after my ol' Papa just ain't around anymore.

*whipes tear*
this really reminds me of my grandpa. I grew up on his farm, ya know, I was only 15 when he died, I often wonder what he would think of me now, when he looks down and sees me... ya know? I'm sure he smiles. i was the only grandchild he didn't get to see graduate. Ecspecially right now, its one of those moments where my brother is getting married in May, my cousin is moving on after the loss of her mother, and I'm picking up everything I have here, and moving away to be with the one I love. I think he'd be proud.
