DEAD IRISH BLUES
Grandma Oh Grandma (Live in Memphis)
Lyrics
I went to grandma's the other day
She said something that blew me away
She said that I was getting fat and she didn't know how I got like that
Grandma oh Grandma, Grandma don't you lie
You put grease in the beans and meat in the peas and sugar in the slaw and puddin' in the pie
Grandma oh Grandma, Grandma once you said
You put butter in the gravy, ham in the grits and honey on my shortnin' bread
Grandma eats as much as me
And she just turned 93
She can't weigh but 104
And I can't hardly get through the door
Grandma oh Grandma, Grandma don't you lie
You put grease in the beans and meat in the peas and sugar in the slaw and puddin' in the pie
Grandma oh Grandma, Grandma once you said
You put butter in the gravy, ham in the grits and honey on my shortnin' bread
Grandma oh Grandma, Grandma don't you lie
You put grease in the beans and meat in the peas and sugar in the slaw and puddin' in the pie
Grandma oh Grandma, Grandma once you said
You put butter in the gravy, ham in the grits and honey on my shortnin' bread
