DWhen I was a little Gbitty boy
DJust up off the floor,A
We Dused to go down to GGrandma's house
AEvery month end or sDo
We'd have Dchicken pie, Gcountry ham
DHome-made butter Aon the bread
But the Dbest damn thing about GGrandma'a house
Was the Agreat big feather bedD
Chorus
It was Dnine feet high, six feet wide
GSoft as a downy chickD
It was mad of the feathers of four-eleven geese
E7And a while roll of clothe for the A7tick
It could Dhold eight kids, four hound dogs
And the Gpiggy that we stole form the sDhed (oink, oink!)
Didn't get much sleep but weG had alot of fun
In AGrandma's feather Dbed
After supper we'd sit around the fire
The old folks spit and chew
Pa would talk about the farm in the war
And Grandma'd sing a ballad or two
I'd sit and listen and watch the fire
Till the cobwebs filled my head
Nest thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morn'
In the middle of the old feather bed
Chorus
Well, I love my ma, I love my pa
I love Granny and Granpa too
Been fishing with my uncle, wrestled with my cousin
And I even kissed aunt Sue (foo!)
But if I ever had to make a choice
I think it oughta be said
That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road
For Grandma's feather bed
(Well, maybe not the gal down the road)
