Verse:
LITTLE RED BUCKET SITTING ON THE SAND
LITTLE YELLOW SHOVEL IN GRANDPA’S HAND
EMPTY THE BUCKET FILL IT UP AGAIN
SCOOP SAND IN THE FUNNEL WATCH THE SANDWHEEL SPIN
OH I WAS SO YOUNG THEN
BUT I CAN STILL REMEMBER WHEN
Chorus:
GRANDPA WAS IN MY SANDBOX
COVERING UP MY TOES
‘N EVEN WHEN I TOOK ALL THE TOYS
HE’D KISS ME ON MY NOSE
MAGIC WAS IN THE AIR
AND CASTLES GREW EVERYWHERE
AND ALL MY FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND
LEAD STRAIGHT TO THE HEART OF THAT OLD MAN
Verse:
GRANDPA’S POURING SAND FROM A SPRINKLE CAN
LOOKS LIKE RAIN FALLIN’ IN MY HAND
LIE DOWN ON MY BACK FLAP MY ARMS LIKE WINGS
MAKE SAND ANGELS AND OTHER STRANGE THINGS
MEMORIES REWIND IN MY MIND
PLAYING PICTURES OF ALL THOSE TIMES
Chorus: REPEAT
Bridge:
NOW I UNDERSTAND
MY PAIL WAS FILLED WITH MORE THAN SAND WHEN
Chorus: REPEAT
