Me Granny Was A Plucker lyrics by Richie Kavanagh

This song was also recorded by Irish country singer Farmer Dan. The guitar chords are included in the key of D.

[D]I never knew me granny but they said she was a [A]plucker,
Me granny thought me daddy how to be a plucker[D[ too,
Now I am a plucker and me brother is a[A]nother,
We're the greatest crowd of pluckers anybody [D]knew.

The 19th of December was the turkey plucking day,
She'd never stop plucking only for a mug of tay,
When granny started plucking thered be feathers everywhere,
Feathers in her petticoat and feathers in her hair.

I never knew me granny but they said she was a plucker,
Me granny thought me daddy how to be a plucker too,
Now I am a plucker and me brother is another,
We're the greatest crowd of pluckers anybody knew.

There's a plucker here in Ireland
He's a plucker from Coothill
In the Guinness book of records he isn't beated still
I only wish me granny could have put him to the test
Cause me daddy said as a plucker me grany was the best.

There was one little plucking job me granny couldn't do,
No matter how she tried sure she didn't have a clue
She said she'd get the hang of it but she was out of luck,
Until the day she died me granny couldn't pluck a duck.

I never knew me granny but they said she was a plucker,
Me granny thought me daddy how to be a plucker too,
Now I am a plucker and me brother is another,
We're the greatest crowd of pluckers anybody knew.

She could pluck a turkey cocker she could pluck a turkey hen,
I bet she could have even plucked the turkey on the den,
Dustin is a divil sure he has an awful mouth
Go on you good thing you'll often hear him shout.

I never knew me granny but they said she was a plucker,
Me granny thought me daddy how to be a plucker too,
Now I am a plucker and me brother is another,
We're the greatest crowd of pluckers anybody knew.

I never knew me granny but they said she was a plucker,
Me granny thought me daddy how to be a plucker too,
Now I am a plucker and me brother is another,
We're the greatest crowd of pluckers anybody knew.
Stay with her Johnny, Stay with her. Richie Kavanagh Songs
