1
My great grandma's name was Selma Drye
2
Everybody tell me I got her hazel eyes
3
It turn Carolina blue when I cry
4
And that's alright with me
5
She kept a 38 special and a can of snuff
6
In the pocket of her rip in case something came up
7
She grew up ragged and she grew up rough
8
The way she had been
9
I know so much she'd be proud of me
10
"˜Cause I'm the only apple on the tree
11
That didn't hit the ground
12
And sit down in the mud
13
But she's up in heaven raising hell
14
And if I can stand up by myself
15
It's "˜cause her gunpowder's running through my blood
16
And when I die put me in the ground beside, Selma Drye
17
Folks round town, they said she was neat
18
But never saw the woman I've seen
19
Never even touched a washing machine
20
And hung everything on the line
21
Kept the peaches and her money in a can and jar
22
Never owned a TV or drove a car
23
That stuff don't make you what you are
24
She used to say that all the time
25
I know so much she'd be proud of me
26
"˜Cause I'm the only apple on the tree
27
That didn't hit the ground
28
And sit down in the mud
29
But she's up in heaven raising hell
30
And if I can stand up by myself
31
It's "˜cause her gunpowder's running through my blood
32
And when I die put me in the ground beside, Selma Drye
33
I still got her words of wisdom playing in my head
34
And her old beat-up Bible's on my night stand by my bed
35
I know so much she'd be proud of me
36
"˜Cause I'm the only apple on the tree
37
That didn't hit the ground
38
And sit down in the mud
39
But she's up in heaven raising hell
40
And if I can stand up by myself
41
It's "˜cause her gunpowder's running through my blood
42
And when I die put me in the ground beside,
43
When I die just put me in the ground beside, Selma Drye
44
Selma Drye
