Текст песни: Grandma's Song + перевод

Come a lou

Come a lou

Come a hi-low

Come a ram tam tam and a dippy dippy dow

Hear the row

The bow wow wow

The bugle’s horn

The big fi-diddle and the hidey-ho

Through the woods

We’re gonna roam, boys

Through the woods

We’re gonna roam

Well, the first I saw was a blind man

As blind as he could be

He said he saw Corina sitting in a tall oak tree

Come a ram tam tam and a dippy dippy dow

Hear the row

The bow wow wow

The bugle’s horn

The big fi-diddle and the hidey-ho

Through the woods

We’re gonna roam, boys

Through the woods

We’re gonna roam

All along the old backroad

The people stopped to talk at her garden gate

While inside

The family cried all through the night

'Cause the old woman had passed away

I loved her so

And oh, she was a special one

A lovely lady and a gentle soul

And she taught me to sing an old folk song

With a melody of a hundred years ago

And she sang

I come a lou

Come a lou

Come a hi-low

I come down the merry stream

I’m remembering

Those memories have given me so much

She wore her age so gracefully

There was not a living thing that she did not love

And I pray that there is a little of her in me

Oklahoma in the summertime

In her rocking chair

She’s singing there

On the porch

While the hounds are howling through the hot black night

And that old fox

Well, he’s a running like he never has done before

When you hear the melody

And when you play my song

Every note you hear from me

She’s singing right along

And she sang

I come a lou

Come a lou

Come a hi-low

I’m remembering

All along the old backroad

The people stop to talk at her garden gate

While inside

The family cried all through the night

Did you hear that old Mrs. Whitten has passed away today
