A Little of This and That
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 cookin' 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 it 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 never hurt ya
With a little a this 'n' that
True this world's in a hell of a fix
And some say oil and water don't mix
But thеy don't know a salad maker's tricks
With a little a this 'n' that
The world to comе may be like a song
With a little a this 'n' that
To make everybody 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
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 cookin' no need to worry
Just a little a this 'n' that
