Four cups of cherries or more, maybe five just to be sure, One cup of sugar or more if the berries are sour. Let your belly say when, when you put in A good pinch cinnamon Groovin', twistin' your leg, when you add the yolk of an egg Crumble some bu*ter with four small cups of flour And in the wink of an hour, if you're lucky you'll try My great-granny's cherry pie. Well listen, once back in 1865, My great-granny served her very first cherry pie And it's been doin' wonders Ever since she spread Her lovin' crumbles She mended broken hearts And won every price in the local country markets. She was the sweetest thing, Invited everybody in to share Tender lovin' care And some pie here and there. Well listen, once back in 1869, My great-grandad walked in and caught her eye, And he´s been doing tumbles ever since he tasted her lovin´ crumbles. She once said to me, "One day you're gonna thank me for this recipe. You gotta follow it to the T. It takes more than just a twinkle in your eye, So when you find your guy, Invite him in for some pie."
