Grandma Plays The Numbers (12-19-48) |
Say Wynonie, I was by your house last night and guess what happened? |
What happened, mon? |
Your grandma was playing the numbers |
Well you just finding that out? |
(Well what do you know, hmm?) |
(We found out) Yes we did |
(We found out) Now we know |
(We found out) We found out that Grandma plays the numbers |
(We found out) Yes we did |
(We found out) She couldn’t keep it hid |
(We found out) Now we know that Grandma plays the numbers |
Thinks about 'em everyday |
Dreams about 'em every night |
Gets up early in the morning |
See all 'em numbers come down just right |
(We found out) Yes we know |
(We found out) Bless her soul |
(We found out) Now we know that Grandma plays the numbers |
(We found out) Yes we know |
(We found out) Bless her soul |
(We found out) Now we know that Grandma plays the numbers |
(We found out) Yes, oh yes |
(We found out) We found out |
(We found out) Now we know that Grandma plays the numbers |
She’s at the fruit stand everyday |
Buys bananas by the bunch |
She looks at all the price tags |
That’s where she gets her hunch |
(We found out) Yes we know |
(We found out) Bless her soul |
(We found out) Now we know that Grandma plays the numbers |
Hey, Grandma, did you get your numbers in yet? |
Well, I 'spect I did, son |
Well, what did you play? |
Three, six, nine |
(Well, what do you know?) |
