Grandma's Hands
Grandma's hands clapped in the church on Sunday morningGrandma's hands played the tambourine so wellGrandma's hands used to issue a warningShe'd say"BillyDon't run so fastMight fall on a piece of glassMight be six there in that grass!"Grandma's handsgrandma's hands soothe the look of a mothergrandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swellOh Grandmas' hands used to life her face into the sheetsSay"baby, grandma understandThat you really love that manPut yourself in Jesus' hands"Grandma's handsGrandma's hands used to hand me pieces of candyGrandma's hands used to pick me up each time I fellGrandma's hands really came in handyShe'd say"Baby, don't you whip that boyWhat you gonna spank him for?he didn't drop no apple core"But I don't have Grandma any moreIf I get to heaven I'll look forGrandma's handsGrandma's hands
