| Grandma’s Feather Bed Lyrics Artist(Band):John Denver
Just up off a floor We used to go down to Grandma's house Every month end or so We'd have chicken pie and country ham 'n' homemade butter on the bread But the best darn thing about Grandma's house Was her great big feather bed It was nine feet high and six feet wide Soft as a downy chick It was made from the feathers of forty 'leven geese Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick It'd hold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On Grandma's feather bed After the supper we'd sit around the fire The old folks'd spit and chew Pa would talk about the farm and the war And Granny'd sing a ballad or two I'd sit and listen and watch the fire Till the cobwebs filled my head Next thing I knew Id wake up in the mornin' In the middle of the old feather bed It was nine feet high and six feet wide Soft as a downy chick It was made from the feathers of forty'leven geese Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick It'd hold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On Grandma's feather bed Well I love my Ma, I love my Pa I Love Granny and Grandpa too I Been fishing with my uncle, I rassled with my cousin I even kissed Aunt Lou eww! But if ever had to make a choice I guess it ought to be said That I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road For Grandma's feather bed Yes I'd trade them all plus the gal down the road **(whispered section)** Well, maybe I'll reconsider about the gal down the road. For Grandma's feather bed It was nine feet high and six feet wide Soft as a downy chick It was made from the feathers of forty'leven geese Took a whole bolt of cloth for the tick It'd hold eight kids 'n' four hound dogs And a piggy we stole from the shed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On Grandma's feather bed We didn't get much sleep but we had a lot of fun On Grandma's feather bed If you find some error in Grandma’s Feather Bed Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about Grandma’s Feather Bed Grandma's Feather Bed | Reviewer: Tim | 1/28/2008 I grew up with this "bouncy" song as a kid, loving especially the whispered part about the gal down the road. Not until I read the lyrics, though, did I understand all the words to the chorus, which is good since I would not have known what a bolt or tick was when it came to making a feather bed. As an adult the song represents more than just a childhood memory, however. John Denver's music became immortalized in my mind and heart the day he died in that plane crash. Ever since then, the songs he sang - always with a smile, doing what he loved to do most - became songs that stood for the best in love, and romance, family and friendship. He shared his life with us, his fans for a very brief time, but left behind a legacy that most men never achive in two lifetimes. I won't be surpised, if when we get to heaven, we will see John Denver playing music while sitting in the middle of a great big feather bed. : ) | Reviewer: Space Monkey | 12/24/2007 Oh such a lovely bouncy song about childhood in the American South back in the day! lol Got this in my John Denver boxset and it's a lot of fun esp. the part about 8 kids, 4 dogs & the piggy they stole from the shed! Gotta love that piggy... : D Great song that should be listened to over and over again. : ) Whats the whisper? | Reviewer: Owen | 11/17/2007 Very good, but you missed the bit where he whisperes something after saying 'I'd trade 'em all plus the gal down the road...' for the second time. What does he whisper? grandma's feather bed | Reviewer: jami | 7/2/2007 to make this song better for people to read i would put the hand signals in ()-these pleaze!! 8-) Review the song Grandma’s Feather Bed The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
