And a piggy we stole from the shed
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
In the middle of the old feather bed
And granny'd sing a ballad or two
It was nine feet high and six feet wide
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
It was nine feet high and six feet wide
On grandma's feather bed
It was nine feet high and six feet wide
But if I ever had to make a choice I guess it oughta be said
But the best darn thing about grandma's house
For grandma's feather bed
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese
We'd have chicken pie, country ham
It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs
On grandma's feather bed
I even kissed Aunt Lou, ew!
I've been fishin' with my uncles, I wrestled my cousin
And soft as a downy chick
And a piggy we stole from the shed
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese
Well, I love my ma and I love my pa, I love granny and grandpa too
It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs
And soft as a downy chick
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
And a piggy we stole from the shed
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
And I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs filled my head
After supper we'd sit around the fire, the old folks'd spit and chew
And soft as a downy chick
Homemade butter on the bread
It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese
Pa would talk about the farm and the war
We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun
That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road
Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
On grandma's feather bed
It could hold eight kids and four hound dogs
Was the great big feather bed
Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning
