Never Hit Your Grandma With A Shovel (Use An Ax Instead)
Oh, never hit your grandma with a shovel
It makes bad impression on her mind (On her mind)
In a better impart all the love things in your heart
For its possible she may retort in kind (Retort in kind)
Remember grannies known you since a baby
And even though in fund would prove a shock (Prove a shock)
So respect her age at head
Stay the shovel and instead
Paste your dear old sweet old grandma with a rock
A grandma with her grandchild sat by the kitchen door
Of a quaint old fashion house built long ago
The little lass grew restless as on the evening wore
For she felt the time was fleeting very slow
"I must do something" cried the girl
And siezed a nearby spade
But a passing stranger blocked her swing
Whilst these wise words he said
Oh, never hit your grandma with a shovel
It makes bad impression on her mind (On her mind)
In a better impart all the love things in your heart
For its possible she may retort in kind (Retort in kind)
Remember grannies known you since a baby
And even though in fund would prove a shock (Prove a shock)
So respect her age at head
Stay the shovel and instead
Paste your dear old sweet old grandma with a rock (A great big rock)
It makes bad impression on her mind (On her mind)
In a better impart all the love things in your heart
For its possible she may retort in kind (Retort in kind)
Remember grannies known you since a baby
And even though in fund would prove a shock (Prove a shock)
So respect her age at head
Stay the shovel and instead
Paste your dear old sweet old grandma with a rock
A grandma with her grandchild sat by the kitchen door
Of a quaint old fashion house built long ago
The little lass grew restless as on the evening wore
For she felt the time was fleeting very slow
"I must do something" cried the girl
And siezed a nearby spade
But a passing stranger blocked her swing
Whilst these wise words he said
Oh, never hit your grandma with a shovel
It makes bad impression on her mind (On her mind)
In a better impart all the love things in your heart
For its possible she may retort in kind (Retort in kind)
Remember grannies known you since a baby
And even though in fund would prove a shock (Prove a shock)
So respect her age at head
Stay the shovel and instead
Paste your dear old sweet old grandma with a rock (A great big rock)
