The Greatest Generation Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you been wondering
Just what has made us grow
A generation hard as stone
My father's father
May God rest his soul
He taught me something you should know:
[Pre-Chorus]
You put your shoulder to the wheel
You put your nose to the grindstone
You work your fingers straight to the bone
[Chorus]
I won't, won't let 'em leave us
A generation
I won't, won't let 'em leave us
Don't leave us
Selfless, relentless
Don't let their memory fade away
No, I won't, won't let 'em leave us
Don't leave us
[Post-Chorus]
Remember what made us great
Now's the time to
Remember what made us great
[Verse 2]
They dug and shaped the earth
And, with their hands, gave birth
To all the modern wonders that you see
They worked from dawn till dusk
They did it all for us
If we take one thing from them, it should be
[Pre-Chorus]
You put your shoulder to the wheel
You put your nose to the grindstone
You work your fingers straight to the bone
[Chorus]
I won't, won't let 'em leave us
A generation
I won't, won't let 'em leave us
Don't leave us
Selfless, relentless
Don't let their memory fade away
No, I won't, won't let 'em leave us
Don't leave us
[Bridge]
I am forever grateful
I am the man I am today
(Don't leave us)
I am forever grateful
For your hand in making me this way
(Don't leave us)
[Refrain]
Remember what made us great
Now's the time to
Remember what made us great
[Guitar Solo]
[Refrain]
Remember what made us great
Now's the time to
Remember what made us great
[Chorus]
I won't, won't let 'em leave us
A generation
I won't, won't let 'em leave us
Don't leave us
Selfless, relentless
Don't let their memory fade away
No, I won't, won't let 'em leave us
Don't leave us
[Post-Chorus]
Remember what made us great
Now's the time to
Remember what made us great
