I had an uncle name of Matthew...he was his father's only boy
Am D GBorn just south of Colby, Kansas...he was his mother's pride and joy
CHORUS: Yes, and joy was just the thing he was raised on
D G C GLove was just a way to live and die
C AmGold was just a windy Kansas wheat field
Blue was just a Kansas summer sky
Am D GAnd all the stories that he told me back when I was just a lad
Am D GAll the memories that he gave me...all the good times that he had
Growin' up a Kansas farmboy...life was mostly havin' fun
Am D GRidin' on his daddy's shoulders behind a mule, beneath the sun
CHORUSAm D GWell, I guess there were some hard times and I'm told some years were lean
Am D GThey had a storm in '47...twister came and stripped 'em clean
He lost the farm and lost his family...he lost the wheat, he lost his home
Am D GBut he found the family bible and faith as solid as a stone
CHORUSAm D GSo he came to live at our house...and he came to work the land
Am D GHe came to ease my daddy's burdens and he came to be my friend
So I wrote this down for Matthew...it's for him this song is sung
Am D GRidin' on his daddy's shoulders behind a mule, beneath the sun
