Four cups of cherries or more
Maybe five just to be sure
One cup of sugar or more if the berries are sour
Let you belly say when
When you put in a good pinch cinnamon
Groovin' twisting your leg
When you add the yoke of an egg
Crumble some butter with four small cups of flour
And in the wink of an hour
If you're lucky you'll try my great granny's cherry pie
Well, listen once back in 1865
My great granny served her very first cherry pie
And it's been doing wonders ever since she's spread her love and crumble
She mend the broken hearts
And won every prize in the local country market
She was the sweetest thing invited everybody in to share
Tender love and care and some pie here and there
Well listen, once back in 1869
my great grandad walked in and caught her eye
And he´s been doing tumblers ever since he tasted her lovin´ crumbles
She once said to me one day you?re gonna thank me for this recipe
you gotta follow it to the T
it takes more than just a twinkle in your eye
so when you find your guy
invite him in for some pie
