Story behind the song
You will have to ask Joyce Davis about that :) ccccAnyway - I will make an update with some backing vocal on as well - and later on my niece Anne will make a complete vocal on this.
Lyrics
Grandma's song (Joyce Davis 1981) Stealing back the stories that the time took from her years Her eyes played moonlight pantomime - Her voice dripped ageless tears A treasury of forgotten tales - slipped from her traveled tongue And sad iron sounds remembered games she played when she was young And I said - grandma tell me just one more Cause mama says you don't got very long Grandma tell me just one more right now Mama says you?re running out of time She looked at me and said one day - Ya know I've never cried then she laughed a bit and cocked her head and told me that she lied She told me ?bout the time he walked from boston to Tennessee And how her shoes just walked away when she took 'em off her feets And I say... Grandma... One day my ma said, grandma's gone and I knew she meant she died And at the wake I held on inside - cause she said she never cried Mama said I couldn?t understand - cause I was just a kid So I asked her to explain it to me before the shut the lid And I said... Grandma...
