working through the Journey of a Song handbook from country music hall of fame,I was told to write down a fav memory. Mine was my Granny's cornbread and beans. I miss Sunday dinners and her cornbread and beans but mostly I miss her.

Granny’s Cornbread and Beans
Verse
So many memories in my mind
Fade and Drift away over time
But what keeps the best from dying
Without even trying, is when I eat Cornbread and beans!
Verse
Every Sunday after Church we would go
To Granny’s house for dinner, now it shows
I loved her Roast Beef and the Rice made like it should
The Sticky kind, man it was so good.
Chorus
But Granny’s cornbread and beans were the best I ever had
Better than my Mamas but I’d never tell her that
Granny’s cornbread and beans could heal your weary soul
And all that it took was just one bowl
Verse
I loved the smell of her house
and the look and feel of that white vinyl couch.
It was the perfect sleeper when your belly was so full
Of the love in Granny’s cornbread and beans.
Chorus
Granny’s cornbread and beans were the best I ever had
Better than my Mamas but I’d never tell her that
Granny’s cornbread and beans could heal your weary soul
And all that it took was just one bowl
[Instrumental]
Bridge
Granny’s cornbread and beans
were made with love, the secret seasoning
Love sent from heaven above, and she put that love
into all that she done!
Chorus
Granny’s cornbread and beans were the best I ever had
Better than my Mamas but I’d never tell her that
Granny’s cornbread and beans could heal your weary soul
And all that it took was just one bowl
Granny’s cornbread and beans could heal your soul
And all that it took was just one bowl
And all that it took was just one bowl

Wow…I haven’t played or listened to this song in 3 months- Just listened to this upload to see if it acually uploaded and I just broke down and cried thinking of my Granny. I miss her so much. This is what song writing is for me on a personal level. It truly is therapy for the soul.
