(Stuart Hamblen)



Me and that navy ain`t speakin`

At sailin` I tell you I`m through

On the advice of a doc I got me a shock

I had to have somethin` to do.



These nerves I got are from soakin` too long

When the ship got hit by a plane

And right here about four years back

I met Grasshopper MacClain.



The sun was a burnin` and the desert red hot

When his mother drove in with a flat

She went inside to cool off with a beer

And I saw her kid in the back.



He lay on the seat in the swelterin` heat

With hair the color of flame

A red headed mite but smilin` and bright

Was little ol` Grasshopper MacClain.



I fixed her tyre and was totin` him round

When she asked me how much she owed

I just laughed and said boy I settle for him

And to my surprice she drove off down the road.



I figured she`d sober and come hurryin` back

But for three long years she never came

And all that time I was mother and dad

To little ol` Grasshopper MacClain.



I`d tell him of ships I`d sailed on the seas

When I put him in bed at night

And that freckle faced kid was as sharp as a tack

And quick as a mate for a fight.



I thought I`d wait till he growed a bit

And let him pick out his own name

One day he came in with a bug in his hand

And he said, "Me Grasshopper MacClain."



Oh, he`d mimic my walk and he`d mimic my talk

Like my shadow he just tagged me around

Even had to be checked every time I was checked

By the navy doc over the town.



The doc`d laugh and thump his little ole chest

And say feller you`re right as rain

Then he`d turn to me and tell me that I`d be a new man

Thanks to Grasshopper MacClain.



I guess you wonder why I`m tellin` you this

Well, that`s why I`m here doin` time

For a bang and a sheriff and a red headed dame that came

To take what was mine.



Oh, but you should`ve seen the way he fought

You could tell that kid was navy trained

But this lonely cell wouldn`t be so much like hell

If I only had Grasshopper MacClain...
