She recently built a brand new house
Near her family that really care
Her home is neat and comfortable
But she's hardly ever there
Grandpappy and she were quite a pair
Still active in the social scene
They danced and clogged and traveled
Their minds still sharp and keen
A few years ago, Grandpappy died
Grandmother grieved in her own way
Not wearing her heart upon her sleeve
She kept busy every hour of the day
This southern belle we call Grandmother
Still drives a car and does her own things
And makes sweet memories while she still can
Looking forward to what each day brings
Always cheerful and young at heart
She's now quite a bit past eighty
The years haven't slowed her down much 'cause
Grandmother's a grand old lady
Maybe one day she'll spend some time
On that beautiful new front porch
But the rocker and the swing will have to wait
Until she gets the time, of course
