Grandma's Hands

[Intro]

Mhm, mhm, mhm, oh

[Verse 1]

Grandma's hands clapped in church on Sunday morning

Grandma's hands played a tambourine so well

Grandma's hands used to issue out a warning

She'd say, "Don't you run so fast

You might fall on a piece of glass

Might be snakes there in that grass"

Grandma's hands, mhm, mhm

[Verse 2]

Grandma's hands soothe the local unwed mother

Grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell

Grandma's hands used to lift her face and tell her

She'd say, "Grandma understands

That you really loved that man

Put yourself in Jesus' hands"

Grandma's hands, mhm, mhm

[Verse 3]

Grandma's hands used to hand me piece of candy

Grandma's hands picked me up each time I fell

Grandma's hands, boy, thеy really came in handy

She'd say, "Don't you whip that girl

What you want to spank hеr for?

He didn't drop no apple core"

But I don't have Grandma anymore, mhm, mhm, mhm

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Grandma's hands clapped in church on Sunday morning

Grandma's hands played a tambourine so well

Grandma's hands used to issue out a warning

She'd say, "Don't you run so fast

You might fall on a piece of glass

Might be snakes there in that grass

Baby, Grandma understands

That you really loved that man

Put yourself in Jesus' hands

Don't you whip that girl

What you want to spank her for?"

[Outro]

Mhm, mhm, mhm, mmm, mhm
