When I was a little bitty boy just up off the floor
D G
We used to go out to Grandma's house
D A7 D
every month end or so
D G
We'd chicken pie and country ham,
D A7
And home made butter on the bread
D G
But the best darn thing about Grandma's house
A7 D
Was her great big feather bed
D G D
It was nine feet high and six feet wide, soft as a downy chick
D
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese,
E7 A7
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
D G D
It'd hold eight kids 'n four hound dogs and a piggy we stole from the shed
D G
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun on
A7 D
Grandma's feather bed
D G
After supper we'd sit around the fire,
D A7
the old folks would spit and chew
D G
Pa would talk about the farm and the war,
D A7 D
and my Granny'd sing a ballad or two
D G D A7
I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs filled my head
D G
Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the mornin'
A7 D
in the middle of the old feather bed
D G D
It was nine feet high and six feet wide, soft as a downy chick
D
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese,
E7 A7
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
D G D
It'd hold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs and a piggy we stole from the shed

Grandma's feather bed
D G D A7
Well I love my Ma, I love my Pa, love Granny and Grandpa too
D G
Been fishing with my uncle, I've rassled with my cousin,
D A7 D
I even kissed Aunt Lou --eww!
D G D A7
But if I ever had to make a choice, I guess it ought to be said
D G
That I'd trade 'em all plus the gal down the road
A7 D
For Grandma's feather bed
