Grandma's Feather Bed

Grandma's Feather Bed - Kids United

When I was a little bitty boy just up off the floor

We used to go down to grandma's house every month end or so

We'd have chicken pie country ham

Homemade butter on the bread

But the best darn thing about grandma's house

Was the great big feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide

And soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun

On grandma's feather bed

After supper we'd sit around the fire the old folks'd spit and chew

Pa would talk about the farm and the war

And granny'd sing a ballad or two

And I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs filled my head

Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning

In the middle of the old feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide

And soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun

On grandma's feather bed

Well I love my ma and I love my pa I love granny and grandpa too

I've been fishin' with my uncles I wrestled my cousin

I even kissed Aunt Lou ew

But if I ever had to make a choice I guess it oughta be said

That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road

For grandma's feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide

And soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun

On grandma's feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide

And soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs

And a piggy we stole from the shed

We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun

On grandma's feather bed

We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
