When I was a little bitty boy just up off the floor We used to go down to grandma's house every month end or so We'd have chicken pie, 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 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 could hold eight kids and four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We 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'd spit and chew Pa would talk about the farm and the war And granny'd sing a ballad or two And I'd sit and listen and watch the fire till the cobwebs filled my head Next thing I'd know I'd wake up in the morning In the middle of the old 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 could hold eight kids and four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On grandma's feather bed Well, I love my ma and I love my pa, I love granny and grandpa too I've been fishin' with my uncles, I wrestled my cousin I even kissed Aunt Lou, ew! But if I ever had to make a choice I guess it oughta be said That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road For grandma's feather bed I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road 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 could hold eight kids and four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On grandma's feather bed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On grandma's feather bed
