The Old Man's Wrath

[Verse] He walked in with a scar on his face A leather jacket A hard-knuckled grace They whispered his name like a ghost in the room The air got thicker The jukebox went mute [Chorus] My grandpa was the toughest man alive Fists like thunder Eyes like knives In every bar fight He’d take the floor He’d win the battle Then walk out the door [Verse 2] A broken bottle was his second best friend His word was law No need to pretend Stories of dust-ups Of men laid flat He never bragged But we all knew that [Prechorus] The bar stools shook The neon lights bled You’d hear his name And the bravest fled [Chorus] My grandpa was the toughest man alive Fists like thunder Eyes like knives In every bar fight He’d take the floor He’d win the battle Then walk out the door [Bridge] They said he wrestled shadows in the dark A lion’s roar in a world full of larks A tornado in boots A hurricane grin You didn’t mess with the storm within
