Intro G
Let wiDld winter winds bellow G'n' blow Em
I'm as warmG as a July Cto Dma Gto. C G
[chorus:] C
Peaches on the shelf
PGotatoes in the bin
DSupper's ready, evGerybody come on Din
DTaste a little of the suGmmer,
DTaste a little of the suGmmer,
You can Dtaste a little of the Gsummer
graCndma put it Dall in Gjars.
Well, there's a Droot cellar, fruit cellar Gdown below
EmWatch you head now, and Gdown you go (Chorus)
DMaybe you're weary an' you Gdon't give a damn
I Embet you never tasted her Gblackberry jam. (Chorus)
Ah, she's got Dmagic in her - you kGnow what I mean
She puts the Emsun and rain Gin with her beans. (Chorus)
What with the sDnow and the economy and Gev'ry'thing,
I tEmhink I'll jus' stay down here and Geat until spring. (Chorus)
When I go Ddown to see my grandma I Ggain a lot of weight
With hEmer dear hands she gives me Gplate after plate.
SChe cans the pickles, sweGet & dill
SDhe cans the songs of the Gwhippoorwill
And the mDorning dew and the Gevening moon
I rDeally got to go Gsee her soon
'Cause Dthese canned goods I Gbuy at the store
DAin't got the summer in them Ganymore.
DYou bet, grandma, as Gsure as you're born
I'll tDake some more potatoes and a Gthunderstorm. (Chorus)
