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

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 they don't know a saladmaker's tricks

With a little a this n that

The world to come 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
