Grandma's Feather Bed
DWhen I was a Glittle bitty boy Djust up off the A7floor
We Dused to go out to GGrandma's house
Devery month A7end or Dso
We'd Dchicken pie and Gcountry ham,
And Dhome made butter on the A7bread
But the Dbest darn thing about GGrandma's house
Was her A7great big feather Dbed
It was Dnine feet high and six feet wide, Gsoft as a downy Dchick
DIt was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese,
Took a E7whole bolt of cloth for the A7tick
It'd Dhold eight kids 'n four hound dogs and a Gpiggy we stole from the Dshed
DWe didn't get much sleep but we Ghad a lot of fun on
A7Grandma's feather Dbed
DAfter supper we'd Gsit around the fire,
the Dold folks would spit and A7chew
DPa would talk about the Gfarm and the war,
and my DGranny'd sing a A7ballad or Dtwo
I'd Dsit and listen and Gwatch the fire till the Dcobwebs filled my A7head
DNext thing I'd know I'd Gwake up in the mornin'
in the A7middle of the old feather Dbed
It was Dnine feet high and six feet wide, Gsoft as a downy Dchick
DIt was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese,
Took a E7whole bolt of cloth for the A7tick
It'd Dhold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs and a Gpiggy we stole from the Dshed
DWe didn't get much sleep but we Ghad a lot of fun on
A7Grandma's feather Dbed
DWell I love my Ma, GI love my Pa, love DGranny and Grandpa A7too
Been Dfishing with my uncle, I've Grassled with my cousin,
I even Dkissed A7Aunt DLou --eww!
DBut if I ever had to Gmake a choice, I Dguess it ought to be A7said
That I'd Dtrade 'em all plus the Ggal down the road
For A7Grandma's feather Dbed
Yes I'd Dtrade 'em all, plus the Ggal down the road (spoken: maybe not the gal )
It was Dnine feet high and six feet wide, Gsoft as a downy Dchick
DIt was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese,
Took a E7whole bolt of cloth for the A7tick
It'd Dhold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs and a Gpiggy we stole from the Dshed
DWe didn't get much sleep but we Ghad a lot of fun on
A7Grandma's feather Dbed
It was Dnine feet high and six feet wide, Gsoft as a downy Dchick
DIt was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese,
Took a E7whole bolt of cloth for the A7tick
It'd Dhold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs and a Gpiggy we stole from the Dshed
DWe didn't get much sleep but we Ghad a lot of fun on
A7Grandma's feather Dbed
Didn't get much sleep but we Ghad a lot of fun on AGrandma's, Grandma's
