dana lyons - grandma’s up in heaven, giving hell to god lyrics
she was a red+haired beauty
with big brown eyes
a straight+talking gal
who didn’t know how to lie
and from the day she was born
everybody knew who was in charge
they called her roughhouse rosy
on the basketball court
a top+ranking center
even though she was short
a bull in a china shop, living life large
she rarely cooked
and she didn’t like to clean
if you messed with her family
she could quickly get mean
and when the cops came around
even they could see who made thе law
she had a heart so tendеr
and a love so deep
the tough matriarch of a big family
and we’re missing her today
remembering our old grandma
the family’s at the graveside
standing on the sod
grandma’s up in heaven
giving h+ll to god
she taught me my addition
and she laid down the rules
you stick by your family
and you’re staying in school
never trust the masses
and be ready when it’s time to run
your education is the only thing
they can’t take away
you’ve got to be your own boss
if you want steady pay
you’ve got to work hard, laugh hard
play hard and try to have fun
she always spoke her mind
and said that nixon’s a crook
she showed me where mccarthy
made her hide all the books
and when the thumpers came around
she would feed ’em and talk off their ear
she taught us our morality
and how to be proud
if you don’t want to be misunderstood
you’d better talk loud
and every day
she’d have a little glass of bourbon
but she never drank beer
the family’s at the graveside
standing on the sod
grandma’s up in heaven
giving h+ll to god
well, now she’s talking with the big guy
and she’s holding his ear
she’s got a few pointers that he’s gonna hear
you’ve got the power of the universe
so, what’s the delay?
it’s time to end poverty and stop all the wars
and when you’re done with that
i’ve got a long list of chores
i’ve got a feeling that the great almighty’s
gonna have a long day
the family’s at the graveside
standing on the sod
grandma’s up in heaven
giving h+ll to god
the family’s at the graveside
standing on the sod
grandma’s up in heaven
giving h+ll to, giving h+ll to
giving h+ll to god
