Grandma's got a playhouse
In the country
Just an old farmhouse
Yet it's a mansion
In her eyes

She's painted it in yellow
Among the pines so green
Trimmed it in white
Put shutter round the windows
For some added style

She's digging up the yard
She got grandpa
Hauling dirt
She's going to plant some flowers
She's busy with her work

She and Grandpa's having fun
Playing house together
And at the end of each day
You'll find them in the
Porch swing
Sipping lemonade

Songbird,

Nice work. It made me miss my own grandparents.
