Grandpa Stole My Baby
Arild Rønes & The Cascadez
(Arild Rønes, MP3.COM 92539, 2001)
Well, I'm still young at heart, my grandpa said to me
He's got a new girlfriend, and she's only twenty-three
Well, he ain't got no money, and he ain't got no gold
Well, but he's got something else, or so I'm told
Well, grandpa sits in his rocking chair, rock away all day
When the evening shadow falls, he comes out to prey
He's still got what it takes to satisfy a girl
Well, now grandpa and my used-to-be, I think I'm gonna hurl
Yeah, 'cause grandpa stole my baby and my future bride-to-be
I'm defeated by gramps, talk about a misery!
Well, finders keepers, losers weepers, that's what he say
And just with a blink of an eye, he stole my gal away
Well, grandpa is an old man, soon to be eighty-four
So why are all these women still knockin' at his door?
He went out of date, back in nineteen forty-five
Yeah, but grandpa still knows how to jump and jive
Well, grandpa stole my baby and my future bride-to-be
Defeated by gramps, talk about a misery!
Finders keepers, losers weepers, that's what he say
And just with a blink of an eye, he took my gal away
He took my gal away
He took my gal away
