selma drye - kellie pickler lyrics
(verse)
my great grandma’s name was selma drye
everybody tell me i got her hazel eyes
it turn carolina blue when i cry
and that’s alright with me
(verse)
she kept a 38 special and a can of snuff
in the pocket of her rip in case something came up
she grew up ragged and she grew up rough
the way she had been
(chorus – part 1)
i know so much she’d be proud of me
‘cause i’m the only apple on the tree
that didn’t hit the ground
and sit down in the mud
(chorus – part 2)
but she’s up in heaven raising h-ll
and if i can stand up by myself
it’s ‘cause her gunpowder’s running through my blood
and when i die put me in the ground beside… selma drye
(verse)
folks round town, they said she was neat
but never saw the woman i’ve seen
never even touched a washing machine
and hung everything on the line
(verse)
kept the peaches and her money in a can and jar
never owned a tv or drove a car
that stuff don’t make you what you are
she used to say that all the time
(chorus – part 1)
i know so much she’d be proud of me
‘cause i’m the only apple on the tree
that didn’t hit the ground
and sit down in the mud
(chorus – part 2)
but she’s up in heaven raising h-ll
and if i can stand up by myself
it’s ‘cause her gunpowder’s running through my blood
and when i die put me in the ground beside… selma drye
(bridge)
i still got her words of wisdom playing in my head
and her old beat-up bible’s on my night stand by my bed
(chorus – part 1)
i know so much she’d be proud of me
‘cause i’m the only apple on the tree
that didn’t hit the ground
and sit down in the mud
(chorus – part 2)
but she’s up in heaven raising h-ll
and if i can stand up by myself
it’s ‘cause her gunpowder’s running through my blood
and when i die put me in the ground beside…
when i die just put me in the ground beside… selma drye
selma drye…
