Grandmother's pantry was never bare,
Always plenty of good things to eat there.
Homemade cookies and candy so yummy,
Sure tasted good and filled my tummy.
Grandfather would come in,
And then he'd ask,
Have you seen Little Mary,
I gave her a task.
Oh, she'll be here,
Grandmother would say,
Just give her a minute
To straighten her hair.
He didn't know,
What I'd been doing.
At least I didn't think so.
But Grandfather was grinning.
He knew all along,
What I'd been up to,
I'd come out with a song,
Grandfather, there's work to do.
Let's get it done,
Just me and you.
Before you know it,
We'll be all through.
