Not too many grandmas are
over a hundred years old.
Mine is. She was my mom\'s
mom and has a heart of gold.
She grew up without electricity
Telling stories about the \"olden days\"
When her grandpa was in the civil war
and how to make certain things her way
As I always have, I like to sit
and listen to her stories told
Of days gone by, of my family tree
of hardships and times she had to be bold
Life before my grandpa was rough
They enjoyed life on their farm
Six children to keep her busy
She\'d make dinner and the family would swarm
A devout religious woman to this day
God\'s taken three of her children away
But I look to the heavens and I pray
Thank you Lord, please give us another day
She\'s lived a fulfilling life, so
with countless grand and great grandchildren
She is loved more than anyone knows!
