    Lyrics:
    Grandma's name was Maybellene
    But everybody called her Queenie
    She raised 3 boys all by herself
    So she smoked just like a chimney
    She rolled her own and she laughed too loud
    Drove a bright red station wagon
    She cussed like a sailor so she was pretty much
    The coolest thing I could imagine
    She played black music on the radio
    Kind of slow danced while she was sweeping
    Sometimes when the daylight turned
    I'd catch her gently weeping
    Said sometimes you just gotta cry
    That's the price you pay for a better life
    Oh and this old world gets hard
    When you're carrying an orphan's heart
    She lived alone for 15 years
    Then one day she just got tired of the silence
    So 2 weeks later she packed it up
    And moved in right beside us
    Mama and Daddy both worked so much
    And if there was trouble I could find it
    Now they had an extra pair of eyes
    Tell you the truth I didn't mind it
    She'd buy me baseball cards
    And let me stay up late
    Taught me every dirty joke I ever told you
    She'd let me play guitar and turn it up too loud
    Aw man I loved her more than Coca Cola
    So I just had to sit and cry
    Kissed her hand and said my last goodbye
    Oh and this old world gets hard
    When you're carrying an orphan's heart

    Great song! Your grandmother reminds me of Frank Turner’s grandmother, Peggy.

    Astonishing songwriting. I mean, REALLY. Will Hoge is up there with Ray Wiley Hubbard, James McMurtry, Butch Thompson, and that whole crew of demigods.

    Unbelievable song!!!!! Best singer/songwriter out there. More talent than any of those mainstream singers, especially when you see his early days playing the guitar and harmonica attached to his neck….chewing the hell out of that chewing gum. Look them up on you tube. You would be impressed.
