Intro: (x2) 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 Chorus: 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 Chorus 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 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 I learned how to write it, when I first started school
