Grandma’s Feather Bed |
When I was a little bitty boy |
Just up off-a floor |
We used to go down to Grandma? |
house |
Every month end or so |
We had chicken pie and country ham |
? |
homemade butter on the bread |
But the best darn thing about Grandma? |
house |
Was her great big feather bed |
It was nine feet high and six feet wide |
Soft as a downy chick |
It was made from the feathers of forty-?even geese |
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick |
It? |
hold eight kids? |
four hound dogs |
And a piggy we stole from the shed |
We didn? |
get much sleep but we had a lot of fun |
On Grandma? |
feather bed |
After the supper we? |
sit around the fire |
The old folks? |
spit and chew |
Pa would talk about the farm and the war |
And my Grann? |
sing a ballad or two |
I? |
sit and listen and watch the fire |
Till the cobwebs filled my head |
Next thing I? |
knew I? |
wake up in the morning |
In the middle of the old feather bed |
It was nine feet high and six feet wide |
Soft as a downy chick |
It was made from the feathers of forty-?even geese |
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick |
It? |
hold eight kids? |
four hound dogs |
And a piggy we stole from the shed |
We didn? |
get much sleep but we had a lot of fun |
On Grandma? |
feather bed |
Well I love my Ma, an' I love my Pa |
Love Granny and Grandpa too |
Been fishing with my uncle, I rassled with my cousin |
I even kissed Aunt Lou oooh |
But if ever had to make a choice |
I guess it ought to be said |
That I? |
trade them all plus the gal down the road |
For Grandma? |
feather bed |
It was nine feet high and six feet wide |
Soft as a downy chick |
It was made from the feathers of forty-?even geese |
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick |
It? |
hold eight kids? |
four hound dogs |
And a piggy we stole from the shed |
We didn? |
get much sleep but we had a lot of fun |
On Grandma? |
feather bed |
