lyrics

Mama set out sweet tea in a mason jar

He wore clean boots, but he’d come too far

Grandma eyed him by the screen door light

Said, “Boy, you can stay, but you don’t stay tonight”

She asked his last name, his mama’s town

Then she crossed her arms and looked him down

I bit my lip and held my grin

’Cause I knew right then what kind of day I’m in

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

And I just know

And I just know

And I just know

And I just know

He brought her peaches in a paper sack

Said, “Ma’am, I’d like to take your girl back”

She tapped that sack with her silver ring

Said, “Son, you ain’t promised me a thing”

She checked his truck for a dent and scratch

His church suit coat and his folded match

Then she leaned in close, calm as can be

Said, “If you’re foolin’ her, you’re foolin’ me”

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

And I just know

And I just know

And I just know

And I just know

Now he’s on the porch with his hat in hand

Trying to win over one hard woman’s plan

She took a pie from the windowsill

And said, “You’re not awful, but I’m watchin’ you still”

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

Grandma says no

And I just know

And I just know

And I just know

And I just know
