Granma's Hands (2020 Remaster)

Grandma's hands clapped in church on Sunday morning

Grandma's hands played the tambourine so well

Grandma's hands used to issue out a warning

Michael 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 the local unwed mother

Grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell

Grandma's hands used to lift her free and tell her

Baby grandma understands

That you really loved that man

Put yourself in the spirit's hands

Grandma's hands doh

Oh yea oh yea

Do do do do do

Oh yea

Oh yea mmmm mmmmm oh yea mmmm mmmmm yea

Grandma's hands used to hand me a piece of candy

Grandma's hands picked me up each time I fell

Grandma's hands

Boy

They really came in handy

Nattie

Don't you whip that boy

What d' you want to 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

Oh yea

I'll be looking for her

Mmmmm mmmmm

Do do do do do

Mmmmmm hea

If I ever get up there

Ah

If I go down there

I'll be wandering around

I'll be lookin' for her

I'll be lookin' up and north and south and west and east

And everywhere I go

Will be grandma

Those eyes

Those hands

Those smiles

Those warm little loves I get from her

Oh

Do do do do do

Hheeeeeee

Well I'll be singin' all about a

Ha hhooooommmm
