She's the one that saved me Waking every morning to biscuit 'n gravy Heaven bless Grand Mamas soul Sweet soul provider Sittin on the porch sipping apple cider She'd say; 'leave the dishes when you go' World ain't changed her at all Sheriff brought the banker Out to see Mama about her 40 acres Said 'it's time for you to go' Staring out the screen door Watching Mama load up our old ford She said, 'honey child, come on lets go' World ain't changed her at all I've still got the bible I stole that night at my revival In some hotel on 35 It didn't have no swimming pool, no TV, nothing to do And Mamas sleeping with her wine So I grabbed hold and called it mine And read every single line The next Sunday morning The Ford broke down just south of Corbin Grandpa came and took us home Sweet soul provider Used to be a preacher before he retired He said, 'girl you'll always have a home' World ain't changed him at all Walkin thru this graveyard I realize times were never really hard We live, we love, we let it go World ain't changed me at all I've still got the bible I stole that night at my revival In some hotel on 35 It didn't have no swimming pool, no TV, nothing to do And Mamas sleeping with her wine So I grabbed hold and called it mine And read every single line She's the one that saved me Waking every morning to the memories she gave me Heaven bless Grand Mamas soul |
