Granny Missed the Spittoon
is a monumental holiday tale that could very well be a series of mostly somewhat true stories. 
Names may have been changed to protect the guilty. 
Luke wrote the words and the band put together the music.

My sweet ol granny named Ruby Mae
We went to her house on Thanksgiving Day
Kids were all getting  in Granny's way
trying to get a piece of some apple cake
     Homemade peanut butter icing on top
     That’s when Granny missed the spittoon
     whole place went to pot
          Granny missed the spittoon
          started all the mess
          Cause when Granny missed the spittoon
          She hit the dog in the head
The dog he started yelpin
He barreled out the door  
Knocked over uncle Jarrell
And the table hit the floor
     He ran behind the lawnmower
     Still yelpin as he fled
     Me and Ray got busted
     caught us smokin in the shed
I tried to hit my brother with the basketball
Missed him completely put a whole in the wall

Scared my cousin Mattie she fell off the barn
Landed on the fence and she cut her arm
     I climbed in the window cause the door was locked
     and I heard ka pow!
     Willy shot the dog
          The boys started fightin
          Uncle Roy blew his top
          Aunt June went to cussin
          whole place went to pot
Uncle Joe said he was leavin
Momma said you better stay
Dad was messin with his engine
And the car went up in flames
I walked back into the kitchen
apple cake was still ok
     Homemade peanut butter icing on top
     But when Granny missed the spittoon
     whole place went to pot
          Granny missed the spittoon
          hit the poor ol dog
          tho Granny missed the spittoon
          apple cake hit the spot
          yeah Granny missed the spittoon
          homemade peanut butter icing on top!
          yeah when Granny missed the spittoon
          who woulda thought
          place would go to pot
Granny Missed the Spittoon
