    3. I'm My Own Grampa Homer & Jethro 1956 RCA Victor 6765 Many, many years ago when I was 23 I was married to a Wider who was purty as can be This Wider had a grown-up daughter who had hair of red My father fell in love with her and soon they two were wed This made my dad my son-in-law and changed my very life For my daughter was my mother cause she was my father's wife To complicate the matter even though it brought me joy I soon became the father of a bouncing baby boy I'm my own grampa, I'm my own grampa It sounds funny I know But it really is so I'm my own grampa My little baby then became a brother-in-law to dad And so became my uncle though it made me very sad For if he was my uncle then that also made him brother Of the Wider's grown up daughter who of course was my step-mother My father's wife then had a son who kept them on the run And he became my granchild for he was my daughters son My wife is now my mother's mother and it makes me blue Because although she is my wife she's my grandmother too [refrain] Oh if my wife is my grandmother then I'm her grandchild And every time I think of it, it nearly drives me wild For now I have become strangest case you ever saw As husband of my own grandmother I'm my own grampa [refrain] < message not to be re-posted! > See: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/intl/RUS/GermanRussian.html PS For anyone interested in a sung version, contact me... and i will see what i can do... ;)
