Grandma Calls The Boy Bad News Songtext
Yeah, yeah, you
What would she do?
What would grandma do, do, do?
On a Monday night at the Rose and Crown
Was a man watching me (Yeah, yeah)
He had the refrigerated lager demeanor
Bit the bottle top with his teeth, oh (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah)
He has auburn hair and trouble in his eyes
And a smile to start a fire (Yeah, yeah)
What would she do?
What would grandma do, do, do?
On a Monday night at the Rose and Crown
Was a man watching me (Yeah, yeah)
He had the refrigerated lager demeanor
Bit the bottle top with his teeth, oh (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah)
He has auburn hair and trouble in his eyes
And a smile to start a fire (Yeah, yeah)
There inside my dull, uninspired heart, mm (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah)
Fast forward to a couple of weeks
And I think I've fallen in love (Yeah, yeah)
He doesn't have anything going for him
But has a little red car, he calls her Carly (Carly)
I'm sitting beside him with my hand in his pocket
And we're driving with nowhere to go
But how it soothes my aching soul
Girl, what would your mother say?
She said, "Take your time, baby, you can go both ways"
Girl, what would your daddy say?
He said I could do better, do, do-do-do better
Woo-woo-woo, what would your grandma do?
Oh, what would she do?
She would get on her knees and pray that I don't make this mistake
Grandma calls the boy bad news
Oh-oh, oh (Yeah, yeah)
(Oh, yeah, oh, yeah) And she says that I can do better, do, do-do-do
On a Tuesday morn' in his bedroom
I lay tangled in his arms (Yeah, yeah)
He still lives in his mother's house
But it does add to his charms (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah)
I lay my head on his tattooed chest
That spells out "Carpe Diem," baby (Yeah, yeah)
Then he asked me to be his lady, gotta think 'bout (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah)
Girl, what would your mother say?
She said, "Take your time, baby, you can go both ways"
Girl, what would your daddy say?
Oh, said I could do better, do, do-do-do better
Woo-woo-woo, what would your grandma do?
Oh, what would she do?
She would get on her knees and pray that I don't make this mistake
Grandma calls the boy bad news
And she calls the boy
Bad, bad news, baby (Oh)
Running, running 'round town with her baby
Falling to her knees and she's praying (What would grandma do?)
And now she cussin' me out on the phone
She told me get a car and get my ass back home
Hoping I will come to my senses, oh, oh, oh
Well, what would your mother say?
She said, "Take your time, baby, you can go both ways"
Girl, what would your daddy say?
He said I could do better, do, do-do-do better
Woo-woo-woo, what would your grandma do?
Oh, what would she do?
She'd get on her knees and pray that I don't make this mistake
Grandma calls the boy bad news
And she says that I can do (Yeah, yeah)
Do-do-do better, do, do-do-do (Yeah, yeah)
And she thinks that I could (Yeah, yeah)
Do better, do, do-do-do (Yeah, yeah)
But she thinks that I could (Yeah, yeah)
You could do better, do, do-do-do (Yeah, yeah)
But who knows if I will or won't or I won't do (Yeah, yeah)
Do better, do, do-do-do (Yeah, yeah)
Fast forward to a couple of weeks
And I think I've fallen in love (Yeah, yeah)
He doesn't have anything going for him
But has a little red car, he calls her Carly (Carly)

You could do better, do, do-do-do (Yeah, yeah)
But who knows if I will or won't or I won't do (Yeah, yeah)
Do better, do, do-do-do (Yeah, yeah)
