Some of you who have been keeping up with my brother's blog http://wwwpaulsworld.blogspot.com/ may already know that our grandparents passed away recently. My Maw Maw left us this year and my Paw Paw a couple years ago. Anyway, I was surfing YouTube and came across this video. It brought back a lot of memories of my grandparents as my grandpa used to sing this song all the time. When I was a teenager I lived with my grandparents for a short time and I remember my Paw Paw would wake up in the middle of the night go knock on Maw Maw's room door and start to sing this song. This was at the top of his hit list right next to Roger Millers "King of the Road" (better known as trailers for sale or rent). My Maw Maw would get so upset with him for waking everyone up. It was hilarious. When I think about it it still makes me laugh. Anyway, Maw Maw and Paw Paw, I miss you and love you. This is for you guys.
