Grandma Harp (Instrumental Version)

- Ameritz Karaoke Club

Grandma's maiden name was Zoan Villines

There's 90 years to tell about in a few short lines

Born in Newton County down in Arkansas

Then in nineteen-one she married Grandpa

We laid her soul to rest one Sunday mornin'

And everybody knew she'd done her part

Don't get set to hear no hidden family legend

Just a song about the life of Grandma Harp

(Spoken)

Just think about the times that she lived through

And think about the changing world she saw

Now somehow she reared a decent family out of poverty

And for 70 years she loved the same old Grandpa

To me her passing brought a closing chapter

To a way of life that I love within my heart

I just mean to say I owe her something special

If just a song about the life of Grandma Harp

Grandma's maiden name was Zombelines

There's 90 years to tell about in a few short lines

Born in Newton County down in Arkansas

Then in nineteen-one she married Grandpa

We laid her soul to rest one Sunday mornin'

And everybody knew she'd done her part

Don't get set to hear no hidden family legend

Just a song about the life of Grandma Harp
