|
Let those December winds bellow and blow |
|
I\'m as warm as a July tomato |
|
Chorus |
|
Peaches on the shelf |
|
Potatoes in the bin |
|
Supper\'s ready, everybody come on in |
|
Taste a little of the summer |
|
Taste a little of the summer |
|
You can taste a little of the summer |
|
My grandma\'s put it all in jars |
|
Well, there\'s a root cellar, fruit cellar down below |
|
Watch your head now, and down you go |
|
And there\'s... |
|
Chorus |
|
Maybe you\'re weary and you don\'t give a damn |
|
I bet you never tasted her blackberry jam |
|
Chorus |
|
She\'s got magic in her - you know what I mean |
|
She puts the sun and rain in with her green beans |
|
Chorus |
|
What with the snow and the economy and everything |
|
I think I\'ll just stay down here and eat until spring |
|
Chorus |
|
When I go to see my grandma I gain a lot of weight |
|
With her dear hands she gives me plate after plate |
|
She cans the pickles, sweet & dill |
|
She cans the songs of the whippoorwill |
|
And the morning dew and the evening moon |
|
And I really got to go see her pretty soon |
|
\'Cause these canned goods I buy at the store |
|
Ain\'t got the summer in them anymore |
|
You bet, grandma, as sure as you\'re born |
|
I\'ll take some more potatoes and a thunderstorm |
|
Peaches on the shelf |
|
Potatoes in the bin |
|
Supper\'s ready, everybody come on in, now |
|
Taste a little of the summer |
|
Taste a little of the summer |
|
Taste a little of the summer |
|
My grandma put it all in jars |
|
Let those December winds bellow and blow |
|
I\'m as warm as a July tomato. |
|
