Watching Grandma

Way back then
Before credit cards
And people cooked with lard
Families canned things in jars

Raised what they eat
Down on the farm
Food like that
Today we can't beat

Peas beans taters
Cornbread and milk
Please don't forget
Those fried green maters

Eggs from the coup
Fresher than fresh
Oh my my
That homemade vegetable soup

Things where different
Maybe things better
Watching Grandma
Churning the butter
