Two John Prine Covers Grandpa Was A Carpenter – John Prine – 1973 Onomatopoeia – John Prine – 1973 ———————————————————- Here are two more songs from Sweet Revenge. John’s grandfather passed away just before he wrote this album. As a result, he has two songs about him on this album. Mexican Home is a serious look at his feelings. Grandpa Was A Carpenter has a much lighter feel. It’s a look back at happy memories. In the lyric, the song “Blood on the Saddle” is mentioned. Here is a link to Tex Ritter’s version. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7Wf6_baka4 ——————————————————— Onomatopoeia is a lively jab at the music industry. Lot of fun to play
