"Where I Lay My Hat Down" lyrics

This old box full of hats
I dust off the grime all the time
My grandfather spent working his life away
Just so he and his wife could make
Good memories and children

This old box
Full of good memories
Fond as the day they were made
Oh all the time
My grandfather spent working his life away
He could come home and say

This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
Working so hard to keep it
This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
And that's why I keep working so hard

These old hats
Worn by many men
That a family in a country made
No regular hand me downs
Valued like family crowns
In a cardboard treasure box
So these men can come home and say

This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
Working so hard to keep it
This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
And that's why I keep working so hard

This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
Working so hard to keep it
This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
And that's why I keep working so hard

This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
Working so hard to keep it
This is where I lay my hat down
I come around strong, willing
And that's why I keep working so hard
