[Verse]
CWhen I was a Flittle bitty boy
CJust up off-aG7 floor
CWe used to go down to FGrandma's house
CEvery month G7end or Cso
We had Cchicken pie and Fcountry ham
And hComemade butter on the G7bread
But the Cbest darn thing about FGrandma's house
Was her Cgreat big G7feather Cbed
[Chorus]
It was Cnine feet high and Fsix feet wide
CSoft as a downy G7chick
It was Cmade from the feathers of fForty 'leven geese
Took a whole Cbolt of D7cloth for the G7tick
It'd Chold eight kids, Ffour hound dogs
And a Cpiggy we stole from the G7shed
We didn't Cget much sleep but we Fhad a lot of fun
On CGrandma's G7feather Cbed
[Verse]
CAfter the supper we'd Fsit around the fire
The Cold folks'd spit and G7chew
CPa would talk about the Ffarm and the war
And CGranny'd sing a G7ballad or Ctwo
I'd Csit and listen and Fwatch the fire
Till the Ccobwebs filled my G7head
Next Cthing I knew I'd Fwake up in the morning
In the Cmiddle of the G7old feather Cbed
[Chorus]
It was Cnine feet high and Fsix feet wide
CSoft as a downy G7chick
It was Cmade from the feathers of Fforty'leven geese
Took a Cwhole bolt of D7cloth for the G7tick
It'd Chold eight kids, Ffour hound dogs
And a Cpiggy we stole from the G7shed
We Cdidn't get much sleep but we Fhad a lot of fun
On CGrandma's G7feather G7bed
[Verse]
Well I Clove my Ma, an' I lFove my Pa
Love CGranny and Grandpa G7too
Been Cfishing with my uncle, I Fwrestled with my cousin
I Ceven kissed Aunt G7Lou oooh
But Cif ever Fhad to make a choice
I Cguess it ought to be G7said
That CI'd trade them all plus the Fgal down the road
For CGrandma's G7feather Cbed
[Chorus]
It was Cnine feet high and Fsix feet wide
CSoft as a downy G7chick
It was Cmade from the feathers of Fforty'leven geese
Took a Cwhole bolt of D7cloth for the G7tick
It'd Chold eight kids, Ffour hound dogs
And a Cpiggy we stole from the G7shed
We Cdidn't get much sleep but we Fhad a lot of fun
On CGrandma's G7feather Cbed
