When I was a lit-tle boy just up off a floor
We used to go down to grand-ma's house
Ev-ry month end or so
We'd have chick-en pie and coun-try ham
'n' home-made but-ter on bread
But the best darn thing a-bout grand-ma's house
Was her great big feath-er bed
CHORUS
It was nine feet tall and six feet wide
Soft as a down-y chick
It was made from the feath-ers
of for-ty 'lev-en geese
took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick
it-'d hold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs
and a pig-gy we stole from the shed
we did-n't get much sleep but we had
a lot of fun on grand-ma's feath-er bed
