Grandma's Hands

Mmm, ooh

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's hands)

Grandma's hands

Clapped in church each Sunday mornin'

Grandma's hands

Played the tambourine so well

(So well)

Grandma's hands

Used to issue vital warnings

She'd say, Joey, don't you run so fast

(Joey, don't you run so fast)

Might fall on a piece of glass

(Oh, my, my)

Might be snakes there in that grass

(Oh, yea)

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's hands)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's hands)

Grandma's hands

Soothed the locals and their mothers

(Shaa, doop)

Grandma's hands

Used to ache sometimes and swell

(Shaa, doop)

Grandma's hands

Used to lift her face and tell her

She'd say, baby, grandma understands

(Oh, mama)

That you really love that man

Put yourself in Jesus's hands

Grandma's hands

(Grandma hands)

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's ha, ha, ha, hands)

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's hands)

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's ha-hands)

Grandma's hands

(Grandma's hands)

Used to hand me a piece of candy

Grandma's hands

Picked me up each time I fell

(Baa doop)

Grandma's hands

Boy, they really come in handy

She'd say, Millie, don't you whip that boy

What you wanna spank him for

(What you wanna spank him for)

Didn't drop no apple core

But I don't have Grandma's hands no more

And when I get to heaven

If I get to heaven

I'll look for Grandma's hands

(Grandma's hands)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, yeah, yeah

Grandma's hands
