His daddy drives a big rig
Down a road that never ends
And he'll grow up and drive that truck

Just like him
At six years old she'll pretend
She's goin' off to work

Till that day comes
When just like mom
She'll be come a nurse


It's Simply Traditional
It's unconditional

With no chance for a change of mind
We just keep passin' it on down the line
And even though it's hard

To fill their shoes
It's a way of life they gladly choose
And you can call it predictable

But it's Simply Traditional

While watching his young son

Till the old farm with a plow
He remembers when
His dad taught him

Standing there and feeling proud
Workin' on a hand made quilt
She's eighty-five years old

Now watch her smile
While her grandchild
Wants to learn to sew


It's Simply Traditional
It's unconditional

With no chance for a change of mind
We just keep passin' it on down the line
And even though it's hard

To fill their shoes
It's a way of life they gladly choose
And you can call it predictable

But it's Simply Traditional

Now me I learned to sing the way

That all my heroes sang
I'm stickin' to my country roots
And if it ain't the latest thing

(Spoken) Well that's ok

It's Simply Traditional

It's unconditional
With no chance for a change of mind
I'll just keep passin' it on down the line

And even though it's hard
To fill their shoes
It's a way of life I gladly choose

And you can call it predictable
But I'm Simply Traditional


Yeah you can call it predictable
But I'm Simply Traditional
