My grandma, she can make a soup,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
She can feed the whole sloop group,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
Stone soup! You know the story.
Stone soup! Who needs the glory?
But with grandma cooking, no need to worry.
Just a little a' this 'n' that.

Grandma likes to make a garden grow,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
But she likes to have the ground just so,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
Not too loose and not too firm.
In the spring, the ground's all got to be turned.
In the fall, lots of compost, to feed the worms,
With a little a' this 'n' that.

Grandma knows we can build a future,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
And a few arguments never ever hurt ya,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
True, this world's in a helluva fix,
And some say oil and water don't mix.
But they don't know a salad-maker's tricks,
With a little a' this 'n' that.

The world to come may be like a song,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
To make ev'rybody want to sing along,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
A little dissonance ain't no sin,
A little skylarking to give us all a grin.
Who knows but God's got a plan for the people to win,
With a little a' this 'n' that.
