Lyrics to Grandpa Was A Jack Of All Trades
Grandpa was a jack of all trades he was a master of none
At the end of the day he'd find a way to get it done
He built a doll house for Mama
A dream house for Gramma
Took pride in the things that he made
Got it done right the first time
Sometimes the second time
Grandpa was a jack of all trades

He never once met a stranger
He mowed yard and fixed fence
He always helped out the neighbors
Never wasted a cent
He could tend a good garden
He could sharpen a blade
Made a pretty good omelette
Grandpa was a jack of all trades

He was a master of none
His bag of tricks could fix anything under the sun
He cold rebuild a tranny
Open fruit jars for granny
Then he'd go take a nap in the shade
Fixed a hole in the wicker
New batteries for the clicker
Grandpa was a jack of all trades
Well he once was a fireman
And he saved a few lives
He was there at Pearl Harbor
Thank god he survived
And when the fighting was over
He went home to the home of the brave
A true American hero
Grandpa was a jack of all trades

He was a master of none
When he rolled up his sleeves
You better believe he'd get it done
He could tie up a slip knot
Or build you a sling shot
Then show you how cribbage was played
He could unclog a sink drain
Made a mean paper airplane
Grandpa was a jack of all trades
Grandpa was a jack of all trades
