Grandma's Feather Bed - John Denver[00:00:01]
When I was a little bitty boy just up off a floor[00:00:07]
We used to go down to Grandma's house every month end or so[00:00:10]
We'd have chicken pie and country ham[00:00:14]
Homemade butter on the bread[00:00:16]
But the best darn thing about Grandma's house[00:00:18]
Was her great big feather bed[00:00:19]
It was nine feet wide and six feet high soft as a downy chick[00:00:21]
It was made from the feathers of forty-eleven geese[00:00:25]
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick[00:00:27]
It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs[00:00:29]
And a piggy we stole from the shed[00:00:31]
We didn't get much sleep[00:00:33]
But we had a lot of fun on Grandma's feather bed[00:00:33]
After supper we'd sit around the fire[00:00:36]
The old folks would spit and chew[00:00:38]
Pa would talk about the farm and the war[00:00:40]
And Granny'd sing a ballad or two[00:00:42]
I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs filled my head[00:00:44]
Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning[00:00:47]
In the middle of the old feather bed[00:00:50]
It was nine feet wide and six feet high[00:00:51]
Soft as a downy chick[00:00:53]
It was made from the feathers of forty-eleven geese[00:00:55]
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick[00:00:57]
It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs[00:01:00]
And a piggy we stole from the shed[00:01:02]
We didn't get much sleep[00:01:04]
But we had a lot of fun on Grandma's feather bed[00:01:05]
Well I love my Ma I love my Pa[00:01:12]
I love Granny and Grandpa too[00:01:14]
I been fishing with my uncle I ras'led with my cousin[00:01:16]
I even kissed Aunt Lou ew[00:01:18]
But if I ever had to make a choice I guess it oughta be said[00:01:20]
That I'd trade 'em all plus the gal down the road for[00:01:24]
Grandma's feather bed[00:01:27]
It was nine feet wide and six feet high soft as a downy chick[00:01:28]
It was made from the feathers of forty-eleven geese[00:01:33]
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick[00:01:35]
It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs[00:01:36]
And a piggy we stole from the shed[00:01:38]
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun[00:01:41]
On Grandma's feather bed[00:01:43]
We didn't get much sleep[00:01:45]
But we had a lot of fun on Grandma's feather bed[00:01:46]
