Karaoké Grandma's Feather Bed John Denver

When I was a little bitty boy just up off the floor

We used to go out to grandma's house every month's end or so

We'd have chicken pie and country ham homemade butter on the bread

But the best darn thing about grandma's house was the great big feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty-leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs and a piggy we stole from the shed

Didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun on grandma's feather bed

After supper we'd sit around the fire

The old folks would spit and chew

Pa' would talk about the farm and the war and granny would sing a ballad or two

And I'd sit and listen and watch the fire 'till the cobwebs filled my head

Next thing I knew I'd wake up in the mornin' in the middle of the ol' feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty-leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It'd hold eight kids and four hound dogs and a piggy we stole from the shed

Didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun on grandma's feather bed

Yeah

Well I love my ma and I love my pa

I love granny and grandpa too

I've been fishin' with my uncle I wrestled my cousin

I even kissed Aunt Lou hoo

But if I ever had to make a choice I guess it oughta be said

I'd trade 'em all plus the gal down the road for grandma's feather bed

It was nine feet high and six feet wide and soft as a downy chick

It was made from the feathers of forty-leven geese

Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick

It'd hold eight kids four hound dogs and a piggy we stole from the shed

Didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun on grandma's feather bed

Didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun on grandma's feather bed

Whoa
