Grandma's hands
Used to feed the poor and frail
Grandma's hands
Used the piano keys so well
Grandma's hands
Used to pour herself an ale
She'd say Tommy don't you get me wrong
This is how I've lived so long
Put my secrets in your song
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
Used to wake me every morning
Grandma's hands
Used pots and pans so well
Grandma's hands
Gave me shelter from the storm
And she'd say Tommy boy that storm will pass
Have a sip from Grandma's glass
Leave the light on if you ask
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
They were old but they were sturdy
'Cause Grandma's hands
They did the work for two
Grandma's hands left Grandpa's too early
But they never wiped a tear
She'd say Tommy boy now don't you fear
Grandma's hands can feel him here
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
Grandma's hands
Held me close when she was dying
'Cause Grandmas hands
Could never tell no lies
Grandma's hands
I could tell, I could tell that she was trying
She said Tommy boy I've lived my life
Any longer would not be right
Let my hands guide songs you write
Take Grandma's hands
