"Long Line Of Love"
(Paul Overstreet / Thomas J. Schuyler)

I bought a beautiful diamond ring
And offered it to the sweetest thing I know
And she said she would take it
We started makin' some wedding plans
She looked at me and she took my hand
And said, "Do you think we can make it?"
I said, "My granddad's still in love with my grandma"
I said, "My dad still thinks my mom's
The sweetest thing he ever saw

I come from a long line of love
When times get hard, we don't give up
Forever's in my heart and in my blood
You see, I come from a long line of love"

Years went by and we had a son
Now he thinks that he's found the one for him
And they're plannin' a wedding
He called me up on the phone today
Just to see what I had to say to him
Did I think he was ready?
I said what his grandfather used to say to me
It's been handed down for ages
It runs in the family

"You come from a long line of love
When times get hard, you won't give up
Forever's in your heart and in your blood
Son, you come from a long line of love
Yes, you come from a long line of love"
