She'd Say (with Ladysmith Black Mambazo)

You never got to meet your grandma did ya? Every night, I got you kissin' on her picture Cuts me up that you will never listen To the sweet, sweet sound of her voice I could tell you she was quite the mixture Of a mama and a shaman and a fiery pistol Truth is, she's right there in you She's a part of you, you don't have a choice [Pre-Chorus: Andy Grammer] My dear, you will feel her In your mind, you will hear her And if she could use words, use words [Chorus: Andy Grammer] She'd say "You're beautiful, but don't you overplay that card" She'd say "You're spiritual, so don't ever forget that part" She'd say "You are so much stronger than you even think you are Let your heart, let your heart lead the way" That's what she'd say [Post-Chorus: Andy Grammer] Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh-woo That's what she'd say Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh-woo-hoo-hoo [Verse 2: Andy Grammer] She said, "Take care of your sisters, I mean the whole world Spend your days tryna lift up other girls You came with love, a purpose, and your mother's curls I'll be with you every step of the way, ayy Don't live your life tryna blend in, stick out Trust your gut and don't you get into those doubts Remember God is like the sun, he always comes out Just when you think the dark's here to stay" [Pre-Chorus: Andy Grammer] My dear, you will feel her In your mind, you will hear her And if she could use words, use words [Chorus: Andy Grammer] She'd say "You're beautiful, but don't you overplay that card" She'd say "You're spiritual, so don't ever forget that part" She'd say "You are so much stronger than you even think you are Let your heart, let your heart lead the way" That's what she'd say [Post-Chorus: Andy Grammer] Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh-woo That's what she'd say Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh-woo-hoo-hoo [Bridge: Andy Grammer] She'd say, "Listen to your daddy In his voice, you will hear me I know he will sing my song to you And know that I'm happy And you'll always have me I'm watching everything you do" [Chorus: Andy Grammer] She'd say "You're beautiful, but don't you overplay that card" She'd say "You're spiritual, so don't ever forget that part" She'd say "You are so much stronger than you even think you are Let your heart, let your heart lead the way" That's what she'd say [Post-Chorus: Andy Grammer] Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh-woo That's what she'd say Ooh-woo, ooh-woo, ooh-woo-hoo-hoo
