Grandma's Hands Songtext

Grandma's Hands Songtext
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, she'd say
"Billy, don't you run so fast
You might fall on a piece of glass
There might be snakes up in the grass"
Said Grandma′s hands
Grandma′s hands
Soothed the local unwed mother
Grandma's hands
Used to ache sometimes in sweat
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′ hand"
Grandma's hands
Grandma′s hands
Used to hand me a piece of candy
Grandma's hands
Lifted me up each time I fell
Grandma's hands
Oh, they really, really came in handy, she′d say
"Manny, don′t you whip that boy
What do you wanna spank him for?
He didn't drop no apple core"
But Grandma ain′t here anymore
And when I get to heaven, I'm-a gonna look for Grandma
And Grandma′s hands
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, she'd say
"Billy, don't you run so fast
You might fall on a piece of glass
There might be snakes up in the grass"
Said Grandma′s hands
Grandma′s hands
Soothed the local unwed mother
Grandma's hands
Used to ache sometimes in sweat
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′ hand"
Grandma's hands
Grandma′s hands
Used to hand me a piece of candy
Grandma's hands
Lifted me up each time I fell
Grandma's hands
Oh, they really, really came in handy, she′d say
"Manny, don′t you whip that boy
What do you wanna spank him for?
He didn't drop no apple core"
But Grandma ain′t here anymore
And when I get to heaven, I'm-a gonna look for Grandma
And Grandma′s hands
Grandma's hands
