Lyrics
Grandma’s Eyes
V1
An old wrinkled face, baked by the sun
Faded Gingham dress …her only decent one
Eyes the years had dimmed ….She couldn’t see as She once could
Grandma’s Eyes were almost blind, but she could sure see good
V2
She taught some school in Kingston, back when she was young
Back when there was discipline when the school bell rung
And they loved it when she told them ‘bout being “all they could”
Grandma’s Eyes were almost blind… but she could sure see good!
CHORUS
Grandma’s Eyes could sure see good, they looked right past the bad
They wrinkled up with happy, and puddled up with sad
And through her ninety six long years her eyes had learned to see
Past the wrongs of this old world to the good in you and me
V3
Harlan was a problem kid for the Grade school marm
He wanted to drop out of School and help his Daddy Farm
But Harland became the Doctor that Grandma knew he could
Grandma’s Eyes were almost blind but she could sure see good
CHORUS OUT
Phil Garton
