Kellie Pickler - Selma Drye Lyrics
My great grandma’s name was Selma Drye
Everybody tell me I got her hazel eyes
It turn Carolina blue when I cry
And that’s alright with me
In the pocket of her rip in case something came up
She grew up ragged and she grew up rough
The way she had been
I know so much she’d be proud of me
‘Cause I’m the only apple on the tree
That didn’t hit the ground
And sit down in the mud
But she’s up in heaven raising hell
It’s ‘cause her gunpowder’s running through my blood
And when I die put me in the ground beside… Selma Drye
Folks round town, they said she was neat
But never saw the woman I’ve seen
Never even touched a washing machine
And hung everything on the line
Kept the peaches and her money in a can and jar
Never owned a TV or drove a car
That stuff don’t make you what you are
She used to say that all the time
I know so much she’d be proud of me
‘Cause I’m the only apple on the tree
That didn’t hit the ground
And sit down in the mud
But she’s up in heaven raising hell
And if I can stand up by myself
It’s ‘cause her gunpowder’s running through my blood
And when I die put me in the ground beside… Selma Drye
I still got her words of wisdom playing in my head
And her old beat-up Bible’s on my night stand by my bed
I know so much she’d be proud of me
‘Cause I’m the only apple on the tree
That didn’t hit the ground
And sit down in the mud
But she’s up in heaven raising hell
And if I can stand up by myself
It’s ‘cause her gunpowder’s running through my blood
And when I die put me in the ground beside…
When I die just put me in the ground beside… Selma Drye
Selma Drye…

Kellie Pickler Selma Drye Comments
sooo many lyrics are wrong!
At 1:32, they have the lyric wrong. it's supposed to say "Folks round town, they said she was mean" not "neat", just sayin', if you're going to give the lyrics, make 'em right :) Awesome tune Kellie! I love it Darlin'!
Love Kelly.
She's in heaven raising hell!
And I thought it was people thought she was mean not neat
corrections: I know "Selma" she'd be proud of me...
Kept her peaches and her money in a "canning" jar...
More corrections that that, like apron not rip, and several others
correction: SHE KEPT A 38 SPECIAL AND A CAN OF SNUFF
IN THE POCKET OF HER "APRON" 'N CASE SOMETHING UP
