Grandmother Song

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

Oh girl, you think you got time

You're gonna get 'round to it way down the line

But one step, two step, fall behind

So you better have a good planOh girl, you think you got time

You're gonna get 'round to it way down the line

But I'm telling you no matter what you have in mind

Still gonna need a manTake it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'round

Yeah, take it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'roundNo, no one's gonna take care of you

In that world you've got yourself into

All the good boys, baby they're in grad schoolOh girl, your story's all wrong

Your dream'll be a nightmare before too long

You're turning thirty and still trying to sing your songs

Come on who do you think you areOh girl it's too heavy a load

Your mama and your baba they are worried souls

How you gonna raise a family when you're on the road

With some tattooed boy with a guitarTake it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'round

Yeah, take it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'roundAll this music career isn't real life

It won't see you through to when you're sixty five

And when the tide turns you won't survive

You'll sit on the banks and cry, cry, cry, cry

Gonna cry alone, cry, gonna cryOh girl, you've never know war

When they come in the night and knock on the door

And you can go from the high life to dirty poor

And lose everything you knewBut the one thing they can't take away from you

Is your mind and the education you've been through

And so you find a man who understands that too

Make sure that he stays true, gives respect where it's due

Make sure he knows, make sure he knows

Make sure he knows what he's got in youBecause a woman isn't just for cooking meals

Scrubbing floors, making babies

A woman's got ambitions same as he does

Maybe moreWhen the sirens wailed and the bombs fell

We ran from the schoolyard into hell

And what we could've been time will never tell

Because we never had your chances

The advantages that you've been handedGirl, you'll never know how hard it was

So you got to do this for all of usTake it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'round

Yeah, take it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'roundYeah, take it from your grandmother I've been 'round

I've been 'round, I've been 'round

Yeah, take it from your grandmother I've been 'round

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
