Lyrics Vulfpeck – Grandma
Text:
My grandmother believed it
That’s why I can see it
Despite the strength I know she had
She still prayed for those whose job it was
She still prayed to those whose job it was
To take care of us
To her, the mystery was the kind of thing
You could see if you just believed
And that it did make it true
Pray for those she loved, yes she did
She prayed for us, yes she did
Pray for those she loved
But in this day that tradition made
Each generation doing the same thing over and over
Over and over again yeah
Understand, ’til i think of her
Doing the things that a young boy can’t understand
Like speaking Yiddish
Seeing my grandma
Walking outside with her right foot first
Seeing my grandma doing things a young boy can’t understand
x2
But in this day that tradition made
Each generation doing the same thing over and over and over
Over, over and over, over again
I can’t understand, ’til i think of her
Doing things that a young boy can’t understand
Like speaking Yiddish
Seeing my Grandma
Seeing my Grandma doing things a young boy can’t understand
She, my grandmother believed it
That’s why I can see it oh boy
My grandmother believed it
Oh oh that’s why I can see it
