“28 at Grandma’s House”
© 2009 Eve & Mare
Quiet Sunday, read the funnies
You’ll never guess what’s on its way
There’s no doorbell a-ringing just the kitchen door a-swinging
As we all come together here today
When we gather round the table we see chicken and potatoes
And we know that it’s gonna be a fun day
Then we all sing the blessing in 4-part harmony
We got 28 at Grandma’s house for dinner every Sunday
Our Aunt Bertha, she’s the first one
With her green bean casserole
Uncle Freddy is always ready
With a serving spoon and bowl
CHORUS
Pass the biscuits and the gravy
Don’t forget the mac and cheese
Sister Amy is always saying
Only take what you can eat
Cousin Wendy’s always late
Brings her carrots on a plate
We don’t even mind the wait
It’s just more time to salivate
CHORUS
Grandma’s hummin’ while she’s stirrin’
And she gives each a wink
Grandpa’s itchy, getting twitchy
And steals a pinch of chocolate cake
CHORUS
