"I can do anything!"

View profile

I know the numbers I'm dialing

won't worry 'bout what to say

It just comes naturally when we're talking



Every Saturday


Every Saturday

I call you up

Every Saturday

we just talk, talk, talk

You live so faraway

but I won't give up

feeling closer to you

and you know that I do

Every Saturday


We chat about things I'm doing

then I ask what you've done today

You did chores but now you're viewing



the shows on TV


Every Saturday

I call you up

Every Saturday

we just talk, talk, talk

When you feel dismay

I'll cheer you up

Bring a smile to your face

in a while you're OK

Every Saturday


I call you today

and we chat about

the weather

and how I wish we were together

Favorite shows

JB is on TV

and who knows

the family news

like who's dating whom

and Frankie who's my one true love

He and I are like turtledoves

It seems we've been on the line forever

so I say I gotta go

and that I love and miss you so

Every Saturday


Every Saturday

I call you up

Every Saturday

we just talk, talk, talk

I had fun today

calling you up

Laughing away the whole time

chatting with you is divine

Every Saturday


I think you're the greatest grandma

living in the whole wide world today

And I'm so glad that I get to call you



Every Saturday

I wrote this song for my grandma, who I absolutely ADORE! I think that a lot of teens think of their grandmas in this way.

This is cute! I thought this was about a relationship until i got to the end and was pleasantly surprised it was about your grandma. I also think you should show this to her!

Oops! Sorry about that! I submitted it under "anonymous" and forgot that it won't show up under my name. They, you could check out "Before I Can Write a Song". That's under my name!

Thanks!
