grandma's hands

Lyrics

grandma's hands clapped to church on sunday mornings, grandma's hands played the tambourine so well, grandma's hands used to issue out a warning, she say, "kevin why you run so fast, might fall on a piece of glass, might be snakes there in that grass?", grandma's hands, they keep on calling to me, grandma's hands soothed the local unwed mothers, grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell, grandma's hands, lord they'd really come in handy, she say, "bobbie why you want to whip that boy?, what you want to whip him for?, he didn't throw no apple core", grandma's hands, they keep on calling to me, grandma's hands soothed the local unwed mothers, grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell, grandma's hands, well they really came in handy, she say, "bobbie why you want to whip that boy?, what you want to whip him for?, he didn't throw no apple core", but i don't have grandma anymore, when i get to heaven i'll look for grandma's hands
