Folkdoctor Lyr Req: Songs About Grandparents (39) RE: Lyr Req: Songs About Grandparents 09 Sep 01


Ruth Pelham has a song about her Grandmother I have been singing it with bKids For Years. Each Child names the Grandmother first and last name and place of origin and it all goes in the zipper song.

If the's one women who I loved in my life it's my
Grandma__________my __________Mom
From__________she came _____________is her name
She's my Grandma _____thers Mom
(on Gentle Wind)

Grant Rogers has a song about his Grandpa telling tall tales which ends in this verse.

Now it comes my Grandpa's time
To bid farewell to all
An Empty chair is standing there
His picture on the wall

I know the man who tends the gates
Would proudly let him by
So he can tell his stories to
The Big man in the sky
(On Folk Legacy)

Also I wrote a song about my Grandfather in 1989 called the "Ballad of Norman Studer" on a tape called Folk Soup.
