CWhen I was a little Fbitty boy
CJust up off the floor,G
We Cused to go down to FGrandma's house
GEvery month end or sCo
We'd have Cchicken pie, Fcountry ham
CHome-made butter Gon the bread
But the Cbest damn thing about FGrandma'a house
Was the Ggreat big feather bedC
Chorus
It was Cnine feet high, six feet wide
FSoft as a downy chickC
It was mad of the feathers of four-eleven geese
D7And a while roll of clothe for the G7tick
It could Chold eight kids, four hound dogs
And the Fpiggy that we stole form the sChed (oink, oink!)
Didn't get much sleep but weF had alot of fun
In GGrandma's feather Cbed
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)
