Grandma's hands
Clapped in church on
Sunday mornin'
Grandma's hands
Played a tambourine
so well
Grandma's hands
Used to issue out a warnin'
She'd say,
"Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on
a piece of glass
Might be snakes there
in that grass"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands. Soothed
a local unwed mother
Grandma's hands
Used to ache sometimes
and swell
Grandma's hands. Used to
lift her face and tell her,
She'd say,
"Baby, Grandma
understands that you
really love that man. Put
yourself in Jesus hands"
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands, used to
hand me piece of candy
Grandma's hands
Picked me up each time
I fell
Grandma's hands. Boy,
they really came in handy
She'd say, "Matty don' you
whip that boy
What you wanna spank
him for? He didn't drop no
apple core". But I don't
have Grandma anymore
If I get to Heaven
I'll look for
Grandma's hands
Hm mmm
