My dearly adopted grandmother
Independent and stubborn like few
At ninety-four, there was no other
My dearly adopted grandmother
Cajun-born, spunky and wise
At ninety-four, there was no other
Your big glasses, your owl eyes
Cajun-born, spunky and wise
Joyfully you met each day ahead
Your big glasses, your owl eyes
Humbly requesting my banana bread
Joyfully you met each day ahead
Our time together I cherish
Humbly requesting my banana bread
Sweet aroma never will perish
Our time together I cherish
We sat and talked over coffee
Sweet aroma never will perish
Embedded in pain, eternally happy
We sat and talked over coffee
Lifelong stories one of a kind
Embedded in pain, eternally happy
Speaking freely your coon-ass mind
Lifelong stories one of a kind
Reflections of days that flew
Speaking freely your coon-ass mind
Annabelle, how I miss you!
