Gladys Knight - Grandma's Hands lyrics
Baby don’t you run so fast (She was always giving us a warning) Might be snakes there in that grass (She was looking out…) Grandma’s Hands (I remember them well.) Grandma's hands Clapped in church on Sunday morning Grandma's hands Played the tambourine so well Grandma's hands Used to issue out a warning She'd say "Gladys don't you run so fast! Might fall on a piece of glass! Might be snakes there in that grass!" Grandma's hands Grandma's hands Soothed a local unwed mother Grandma's hands Used to ache sometimes and swell Grandma's hands Used to lift her face and tell her She'd say "Baby, Grandma understands. That you really love that man. Put yourself in Jesus' hands." Grandma's hands Couldn’t wait till Sunday morning (oh baby don’t you run so fast) Cooking up that fried chicken, Smelling up the whole house "Gladys don't you run so fast! Might fall on a piece of glass! Might be snakes there in that grass!" Grandma's hands Ain’t nothing like grandma’s hands Family is a gift of god, With this song I’d like to pay harness To one of it’s members Over the years her importance has been diminished Her image tarnished, but to me she’ll always be a rare jewel I’ve heard her called by many loving nicknames Nana, Mimi, Mamaw, Big Mama, Poppi But unlike millions of others, I simply call her Grandma Ain’t nothing like grandma’s hands Let me tell you this Grandma's hands Used to hand me piece of candy Grandma's hands Picked me up each time I fell Grandma's hands Boy, they really came in handy She'd say "Baby, don't you whip that boy ! What you want to spank him for? He didn't drop no apple core !" But I don't have Grandma anymore If I get to heaven I’ll look for…Grandma’s Hands Ain’t nothing like grandma’s hands Used to hand me some candy Grandma's hands Picked me up each time I fell Grandma's hands Boy, they really came in handy She'd say "Baby, don't you whip that boy! What you want to whip him for? He didn't drop no apple core!" Grandma’s Hands (x2) |
