Grandma`s Hands — текст песни (Bill Withers)

Grandma`s hands
Clapped in church on Sunday morning
Grandma`s hands
Played a tambourine so well
Grandma`s hands
Used to issue out a warning
She`d say, "Billy 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,
"Baby, Grandma understands
That you really love that man
Put yourself in Jesus hands"
Grandma`s hands

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, "Matty don` you whip that boy
What you want to spank him for?
He didn` drop no apple core"
But I don`t have Grandma anymore

If I get to Heaven I`ll look for
Grandma`s hands
