merle haggard - grandma harp lyrics
grandma’s maiden name was zombelines
there’s ninety years to tell about in a few short lines
born in newton county down in arkansas
then in nineteen-one she married grandpa
we laid her soul to rest one sunday mornin’
and everybody knew she’d done her part
don’t get set to hear no hidden family legend
just a song about the life of grandma harp
just think about the times that she lived through
and think about the changing world she saw
now somehow she reared a decent family out of poverty
and for seventy years she loved the same old grandpa
to me, her p-ssing brought a closing chapter
to a way of life that i love within my heart
i just mean to say i think we owe her something special
if just a song about the life of grandma harp
grandma’s maiden name was zombelines
there’s ninety years to tell about in a few short lines
born in newton county down in arkansas
then in nineteen-one she married grandpa
we laid her soul to rest one sunday mornin’
and everybody knew she’d done her part
don’t get set to hear no hidden family legend
just a song about the life of grandma harp
