You Dancin ?

When granny passed over last Wednesday It was something we never foresaw She seemed to be so fit and healthy But then came the knock on the door The policeman was standing there solemn He wasn’t sure what he should say Then all of a sudden he blurted “it’s granny, she’s just past away” She’d been to the pensioners social She was dancing and knocking back gin You know, the old girl gave a bit of a twirl When her heart it just stopped it gave in So if you should ever reach ninety And you’re having a night on the piss If they say take a chance, get up have a dance Just tell them you’ll give it a miss
