(Song Lyrics)
A Song for Grandma and Grandpa
(Official Grandparents Day Song)
 
Oh Grandma, Grandpa, you know that I love you
I love all those little things that you say and do
A walk through the park, a trip to the zoo
Oh Grandma, Grandpa I love you
 
Going to a ball game, fishing on the lake
Eating Grandma's cookies, boy they sure taste great
Going to the circus when it comes to town
Eating cotton candy and laughing at the clowns
 
Oh Grandma, Grandpa, you know that I love you
I love all those little things that you say and do
A hug and a kiss, a ride home from school
Oh Grandma, Grandpa I love you
 
Spending time together, talking on the phone
Happy birthday presents, chocolate ice cream cones
Photographs and memories, picnics and parades
Saying that you love me in so many ways
 
Oh Grandma, Grandpa, you know that I love you
I love all those little things that you say and do
The stories you tell, things I never knew
Oh Grandma, Grandpa I love you

(Letras de canciones)
Una Canción para la Abuela y el Abuelo
(Canción Oficial del Día de los Abuelos)
 
Abuela, abuelo, sabes que te amo
Me encanta todo lo que dices y haces
Un paseo por el parque, una visita al zoológico
Oh abuela abuelo, te amo
 
Ir a un juego de pelota, pescar en el lago,
comiendo las galletas de la abuela, ¡vaya que saben muy bien
Ir al circo cuando se trata de la ciudad
Comiendo algodón de azúcar y riéndose de los payasos
 
Ay abuela, abuelo, sabes que te amo
Me encanta todo lo que dices y haces
un abrazo y un beso, un viaje a casa desde la escuela
Oh abuela abuelo, te amo
 
Pasar tiempo juntos, hablar por teléfono
Regalos de feliz cumpleaños, conos de helado
Fotografías y recuerdos, picnics y desfiles
Diciendo que me amas de tantas maneras
 
Ay abuela, abuelo, sabes que te amo
Me encanta todo lo que dices y haces
Las historias que cuentas, cosas que nunca supe
Oh abuela abuelo, te amo
