My Last Name Lyrics

I learned how to write it when I first started school Some bully didn't like it he said it didn't sound too cool So I had to hit him and all I said when the blood came It's my last name
Grandpa took it off to Europe to fight the Germans in the war It came back on some dog tags nobody wears no more It's written on a headstone in the field where he was slain It's my last name
Passed down from generations too far back to trace I can see all my relations when I look into my face May never make it famous but I'll never bring it shame It's my last name
Daddy always told me far back as I recall Son you're part of something, you represent us all So keep it how you got it as solid as it came It's my last name
Passed down from generations too far back to trace I can see all my relations when I look into my face May never make it famous but I'll never bring it shame It's my last name
So darlin' if you're wonderin' why I've got you here tonight I wanna be your husband, I want you to be my wife I ain't got much to give you but what I've got means everything It's my last name, oh, it's my last name, yeah
I learned how to write it when I first started school
