Lyrics: Nicholas Galanin/David Galanin Music: Nicholas Galanin/Benjamin Verdoes My grandfather was working here He was a totem carver, and his name is george benson You know, going to my grandfather's house We'd watch him go back to his carving room And he'd be carving away When I saw louie carving metal, that's what caught me
I have a brother that's an accomplished wood carver and silver carver His name is will burkhart My mother did artwork, my grandmother did too Basically, it's been in the family I have a son now that's pretty much immersed himself into the arts And his name's nick So we have a history of artists in the family
Father's hands built everything
