Thread Name: Father's day songs
Subject: RE: Father's day songs
john prine has one called Grandpa Was a Carpenter
and also one called Unwed Fathers...I think.

also Laurie Lewis..Who Will Watch the Home Place..
about a grandfather's death...and grandpa's tools in the workshop.

kate wolf has one..I think it is dad who has a "house he built solid and true"..."He had the eyes of a painter, the heart of a maker of songs. His words fell like rain on the dry desert plain, Precious and so quickly gone. ..."
