Going To Grandma's

Timmy Abell

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

How will we get that far? We'll ride in a motor-car
Out the window, all the people, rushing 'round a busy town
Ride in a car...........off to Grandma's house!

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

Unpack the motor-car, hop on a subway train
Out the window, underground, way too dark to look around
Ride in a car, hop on a subway...........off to Grandma's house!

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

Hop off the subway train, jump on a big blue bus
Out the window, see the runway, silver planes are touchin' down
Ride in a car, hop on a subway, jump on a bus...........off to Grandma's house!

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

Jump off the big blue bus, fly on a big jet plane
Out the window, way below, tiny things are moving slow
Ride in a car, hop on a subway, jump on a bus, fly on an airplane
...........off to Grandma's house!

I love to look out windows!
I like to fly up high
Can't wait to see my Grandma
Hope she bakes a cherry pie

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long long way....

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

Step off the big jet plane, grab us a taxi-cab
Out the window, other people, rushing 'round another town
Ride in a car, hop on a subway, jump on a bus, fly on an airplane, grab us a cab
...........off to Grandma's house!

I'm goin' to see my Grandma
Sure is a long, long way....

Pay off the taxi-cab, ride on a railroad train
Out the window, moving fast, fields and farms are flashing past
Ride in a car, hop on a subway, jump on a bus, fly on an airplane, grab us a cab,
ride on the railroad ...........off to Grandma's house!

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

Off of the railroad train, float on a ferry boat
Out the window, sailin' by, other boats are wavin' "Hi!"
Ride in a car, hop on a subway, jump on a bus, fly on an airplane, grab us a cab,
ride on the railroad, float on a boat ...........off to Grandma's house!

I'm goin' to see my Grandma!
Sure is a long, long way

Good-bye to the ferry boat, and load up grandpa's truck
Out the window, looks familiar, one more turn to grandma's house
Ride in a car, hop on a subway, jump on a bus, fly on an airplane, grab us a cab,
ride the railroad, float on a boat, grandpa's truck ....Hey, look!..
This is Grandma's house!

Hi! Grandma, here's a hug
I can't wait for cherry pie
Guess how we got to your house......

We rode in a car, hopped on a subway, jumped on a bus, flew on an airplane,
grabbed us a cab, rode on the railroad, floated a boat, 'n' grandpa's truck......

I'm glad to see my Grandma!
Sure was a long, long way
So many things to ride on......Uh, Oh!
I forgot my bike....... ("Let's go Back!")
