Gram gram keeps a box of spiders
F C Bb
says they're on me when I sleep
F C Bb
waitin' in the outhouse for me
F C Bb
Underneath the seat
F C Bb
Great grandmother's ‘bout 97
F C Bb
She is sure when she gets to heaven
F C Bb
Old St. Peter's gonna throw his arms around her and say
F C Bb
I've waited s-o-o-oo long for us to meet
F C Bb
Put the General in the box
F C Bb
And buried him behind the Stony Point Church of Christ
F C Bb
When I was three
F C Bb
When the Lord comes to take me
F C Bb
I'll die with a smile on
F C Bb
Because he's taking all my pain and fears
F C Bb
They said the General's last words were
F C Bb
'It's hotter than hell in here'
Gram gram keeps a box of spiders
So she told me as a child
I would hold it in for hours
to the hand of God
to the hand of God
to the hand of God
