Intro F
Let wiGld winter winds bellow F'n' blow Am
I'm as warmF as a July Fto Gma Fto. F F
[chorus:] F
Peaches on the shelf
PFotatoes in the bin
GSupper's ready, evFerybody come on Gin
GTaste a little of the suFmmer,
GTaste a little of the suFmmer,
You can Gtaste a little of the Fsummer
graFndma put it Gall in Fjars.
Well, there's a Groot cellar, fruit cellar Fdown below
AmWatch you head now, and Fdown you go (Chorus)
GMaybe you're weary an' you Fdon't give a damn
I Ambet you never tasted her Fblackberry jam. (Chorus)
Ah, she's got Gmagic in her - you kFnow what I mean
She puts the Amsun and rain Fin with her beans. (Chorus)
What with the sGnow and the economy and Fev'ry'thing,
I tAmhink I'll jus' stay down here and Feat until spring. (Chorus)
When I go Gdown to see my grandma I Fgain a lot of weight
With hAmer dear hands she gives me Fplate after plate.
SFhe cans the pickles, sweFet & dill
SGhe cans the songs of the Fwhippoorwill
And the mGorning dew and the Fevening moon
I rGeally got to go Fsee her soon
'Cause Gthese canned goods I Fbuy at the store
GAin't got the summer in them Fanymore.
GYou bet, grandma, as Fsure as you're born
I'll tGake some more potatoes and a Fthunderstorm. (Chorus)
