Grandma's Feather Bed - Bevan Gardiner[00:00:00]
Written by:Jim O'Connor[00:00:01]
When I was a little bitty boy just up off the floor[00:00:04]
We used to go down to grandma's house every month end or so[00:00:08]
We'd have chicken pie country ham[00:00:12]
Homemade butter on the bread[00:00:14]
But the best darn thing about grandma's house[00:00:17]
Was the great big feather bed[00:00:19]
It was nine feet high and six feet wide[00:00:21]
And soft as a downy chick[00:00:23]
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese[00:00:25]
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick[00:00:27]
It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs[00:00:29]
And a piggy we stole from the shed[00:00:32]
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun[00:00:33]
On grandma's feather bed[00:00:36]
After supper we'd sit around the fire the old folks'd spit and chew[00:00:38]
Pa would talk about the farm and the war[00:00:42]
And granny'd sing a ballad or two[00:00:44]
And I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs filled my head[00:00:46]
Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning[00:00:50]
In the middle of the old feather bed[00:00:53]
It was nine feet high and six feet wide[00:00:55]
And soft as a downy chick[00:00:57]
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese[00:00:59]
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick[00:01:01]
It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs[00:01:03]
And a piggy we stole from the shed[00:01:05]
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun[00:01:07]
On grandma's feather bed[00:01:10]
Well I love my ma and I love my pa[00:01:16]
I love granny and grandpa too[00:01:18]
I've been fishin' with my uncles I wrestled my cousin[00:01:20]
I even kissed Aunt Louies[00:01:22]
But if I ever had to make a choice I guess it oughta be said[00:01:25]
That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road[00:01:28]
For grandma's feather bed[00:01:31]
It was nine feet high and six feet wide[00:01:33]
And soft as a downy chick[00:01:35]
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese[00:01:37]
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick[00:01:39]
It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs[00:01:41]
And a piggy we stole from the shed[00:01:43]
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun[00:01:45]
On grandma's feather bed[00:01:48]
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun[00:01:49]
On grandma's feather bed[00:01:52]
