The Magic Apron
Granny wore an apron every single day
Whether baking in the kitchen or helping Pa with hay
It wiped away my tears, when I fell and skinned a knee
It played peek-a-boo with baby to make him squeal with glee
(CHORUS)
It was a magic apron
I never will forget
The many, many uses
Granny had for it
It held apples from the orchard, rhubarb from the patch
And cradled baby chick as soon as they were hatched
Carried eggs from the henhouse, popcorn from the crib
It had two big pockets and of course, it had a bib
CHORUS
Carried eggs from the henhouse, popcorn from the crib
It had two big pockets and of course, it had a bib
CHORUS (2X)
It was a magic apron (spoken)
