Listen, let me tell you people
About a lady who was dear to me
I'm speaking about my dear old grandmother
Who really watched and cared for me
She raised me from a third-floor window
From a wheelchair made of steel
It took her everywhere she had to go
Mainly to the windowsill
Out of the window, she gave me love (Gave me love)
But granny didn't take no stuff (Didn't take no stuff)
She was a little bitty package in a wheelchair
But she was sure 'nough mighty rough and tough
That's why they called her
Everybody called her
Window, window raisin' granny
Everybody called her
Window, window raisin' granny
(Window, window raisin' granny)
I can remember that dear sweet lady
And the things she used to do
Warm my heart when I think about
How she brought a certain young man through
All the kids in the neighbourhood loved her
Though they used to laugh and call her names
'Cause she raised us, and loved us, and did her part
Looking through the windowpane
That's why they called her
Window, window raisin' granny
Everybody called her
Window, yes they did, window raisin' granny
Everybody knew her as
Window, window raisin' granny
They used to call her
Window, window raisin' granny
Window, window raisin' granny
Window raisin', ooh ooh
Window, window raisin' granny
