Granny got up early one sunny day
Went to get the ferry down to Nashville
Went to find my sister who had run away
run off with a barker on a fair wheel
Oh Granny don`t you bother with her
She really didn`t love us anyway
No Granny don`t you bring her back home
You`re never gonna make her wanna stay
Granny brought us both up from the age of four
Gave us education and a home yeah
Made sure we were brung up in a proper way
Granny worked her fingers to the bone yeah
chorus
No Granny she really didn`t love us anyway
No Granny I won`t bother with her
I know she`ll never ever wanna stay
chorus
Just the other day my granny passed away
Doc says she was pining for a baby
Now I go to put some flowers on her grave
She really was a very special lady
Oh Granny I won`t bother with her
She really didn`t love us anyway
No Granny I wouldn`t bring her back home
You`re never gonna make her wanna stay
No Granny she really didn`t love us anyway
No Granny I won`t bother with her
I know she`ll never ever wanna stay
