Gal Like Great Granny
Give me a gal like great granny---------------------------------- {Chorus
Who don’t sit around on her fanny
A lady all dressed in linens and lace
Not plastered with makeup all over her face
Just a plain old gal with natural appeal
All that you see you know is for real
Who cooks a great meal and makes apple pie
And knows how to please this old fashioned guy
Let her be content with the simple things
No fancy jewels or gaudy rings
Let her have morals and know etiquette
Doesn’t need liquor or foul cigarettes
I don’t need a beauty or a fashion plate
But smells like lavender when we’re out on a date
A lady who walks with dignity and pride
And during times of trouble will be right at my side
Give me a gal like great granny---------------------------------- {Chorus
Who don’t sit around on her fanny
A lady all dressed in linens and lace
Not plastered with makeup all over her face
Just a plain old gal with natural appeal
All that you see you know is for real
Who cooks a great meal and makes apple pie
And knows how to please this old fashioned guy
She won’t complain over trivial things
Happy with her life; whatever it may bring
I’m wishfully thinking of the days of old
But in vain cause they threw away great granny’s mold
Instrumental break 12 bars
Great Granny you must be… a creature of yore---- {Bridge
Because gals like you... don’t exist no more
Give me a gal like great granny---------------------------------- {Chorus
Who don’t sit around on her fanny
A lady all dressed in linens and lace
Not plastered with makeup all over her face
Just a plain old gal with natural appeal
All that you see you know is for real
Who cooks a great meal and makes apple pie
And knows how to please this old fashioned guy
Who cooks a great meal and makes apple pie
And knows how to please this old fashioned guy
