Frank D. Fixer

Frank D. Fixer was a handyman He could handle anything; he was my granddad He grew his own food and could fix his own car I watched it all happen in our backyard He'd reinvent the part to fix a broken home He'd restore the heart Well I wish I was a fixer I would fix you up inside I would build you a town if the world fell down I wish I was that guy Well if Frank D. Fixer were alive today Well he may laugh at me or he may have a lot to say He might ask that I keep working for the family To keep the bills all paid and be his protégé What happened to the ground right where we are? What happened to the family farm? I wish I was a fixer I would fix you up inside I would build you a town if the world fell down I wish I was that guy Every evening breaking bread He showed us who a real man is No matter what my grandma says He would never lose his head I wish I was a fixer I would fix you up inside I would build you a town if the world fell down I wish I was that guy Well I wish I was a farmer I would grow you a Garden of Eden And I would bless the family with the gifts that granddad handed me How wonderful that would be Baby I'll make that guy be me --- Frank D.
