Grandpa Stole My Baby (12-19-52)

Well, talk about when a man gets old, he's through
That's a doggone lie, I'll prove it to you
The biggest mistake I ever made in my life
The day I let Grandpa see my wife

Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Stole the woman I love and gone

Grandpa's old, past it, too
Tell me, what can that old man do?
One of these days I aim to find out
What my baby's so crazy about

Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Stole the woman I love and gone

Well, he ain't got no money, way past his prime
Mother Nature's gone, thanks to Father Time
Whatever he does, baby likes it well
Doggone her soul, that woman won't tell

Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Stole the woman I love and gone

Well, he plants his own tobacco, then when it's ripe
He gathers it up, smokes it in his pipe
Then he throws away his old walking cane
Shouts out loud, "I'm a mighty, mighty man"

Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Stole the woman I love and gone

Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Grandpa stole my baby
Stole that woman I love and gone
